SOG Entrenching Tool

SOG Entrenching Tool

It’s a pick, a shovel or a pickaxe but no matter how you view SOG’s new Entrenching Tool, it has to rate as one of the best bits of all round countryman’s kit on the market.

Small enough to fold down and fit in its own belt loop pouch, from a compact 4½”x7½” into a shovel, pick or fully functioning pickaxe that weighs just 24½” ounces all in. The type of kit everyone be they a shooter, gamekeeper, outdoorsman, 4x4 enthusiasts, winter motorists or even keen gardeners should have to hand. Better still all it costs is £15.37p complete with nylon pouch.

SOG knives and tools take their name from the Studies & Observation Group, an American Special Forces set-up formed back in the early 60’s in Vietnam, and whilst the company still produces modern versions of their famous military knives they also produce some excellent general purpose items such as this Entrenching Tool.

Solid Design

Held securely in place by a locking knurled collar, the user can quickly deploy the short pick that’s ideal for levering small stones and tree roots out of the way or enlarging small holes. Alternatively, the small heart shaped shovel complete with a short serrated section slices through earth. A fold on the top edges ensuring the foot has an excellent and secure purchase when digging into harder ground. Deploy both implements and you have a small pickaxe that’ll tackle most things be it one handed or two, the big handle ensuring you constantly have a firm, full sized grip. Even standing on it for more leverage has no effect whatsoever on the tool itself.

The tool is fully anodised and built to take the knocks. The strong rivets, nylon locknuts and general robust military style construction means the SOG Entrenching Tool will last for years. As something bought to leave in the back of your motor it’s a safe bet to say that this is the last place it’ll be found, since you’ll find numerous uses for this multi-functional spade.
