June 8, 2017 - Comment
VIVO’s portable fold up shovel is a necessity for any survival kit, whether you are embarking on a long wilderness adventure or preparing for emergency situations such as digging out a tire stuck in snow. This powerful yet easy to use spade comes in a fine black finish. When unfolded the VIVO shovel reaches 18″ and is secured/locked into place with a simple twist. The spade head is 4.5″ wide by 6.25″ long with a serrated edge for sawing. Attached to the back of the head is a 4.5″ pick for digging out roots. The pick can be folded back to avoid shovel interference. The entire shovel can be locked into a full 180 degree angle or if needed a 90 degree angle for tight situations. When completely collapsed, this shovel fits into a 6″ by 8″ black carrying bag which is included. This carrying bag has a belt loop for added portability. Ideal uses for this blade include camping, hiking, emergency digging, gardening, house repair, and many other outdoor uses.

Not much to dislike about something at this price Not much to dislike about something at this price. Haven’t used it yet as it was purchased to keep in my SUV to assist with moving snow away from my tires during chain-up should the need arise. The blade is quite flat so it’s more of a scraping blade than shovel and certainly wouldn’t move much volume for that reason not to mention the size. It seems durable enough, and as with any tool the durability is also a function of proper use and reasonable expectations. As far as camping goes, it…
Good for what I bought it for (shoveling snow around … Good for what I bought it for (shoveling snow around truck tires to get tire chains on). I wouldn’t use it for heavy duty digging or prying.
Laughably cheap for such a great tool Well, for $10, I’m almost laughing at how cheap that is for a nice tool like this.
