Shovels, Axes, Saws and Machetes – Essential Gear for the Forest, Hiking and Survival

As part of outdoor survival equipment, outdoor shovels usually have the feature of practical and quick folding into smaller dimensions. This way, you can fold the shovel to take up as little space as possible while moving around. Most of the time, the handle can be folded right over the head of the shovel. Some shovel models are manufactured as multifunctional, in combination with other tools, e.g. spade, hammer or hoe. Such shovels thus offer several features. Camping folding shovels have a solid metal construction and are suitable for hiking and other outdoor activities.

Outdoor axes - their weight is usually between 0.5 kg and 1 kg and their length is up to 40 cm. Axes for outdoor use are adapted by their weight for carrying over longer distances. Mostly their weight depends on their handle, therefore lighter materials are used for it, which are at the same time very strong and resistant even to strong blows. They are practical and lightweight, ideal for short hikes when you need to make, for example, a campfire. Axes are often made of stainless steel. 

Outdoor saws are practical, lightweight, secured when carrying. Their use offers a wide range of possibilities. The saws are great helpers when cutting smaller branches, when preparing a fire or when sawing larger pieces of wood. Whether you go hunting, fishing, hiking, camping or barbecuing with family and friends, you'll be glad you have a quality saw with you.

The machete is an excellent and practical tool, suitable for bushcraft activities, such as cutting undergrowth, grass, bushes. This handy tool is always accompanied by a high-quality and practical sheath for attaching it to a backpack or belt.
