The Shen Ao is a brilliantly designed, Chinese made outdoor shovel that is designed with a handy modular handle as well as multipurpose components that allow you to tackle a wide variety of challenges in the outdoors.
What's great about this outdoor shovel is that its handle is divided into a veritable array of specially threaded modules that can be expanded out. The handle can be unscrewed to make use of a powerful 320-lumen handheld flashlight that helps you see in the dark. Elsewhere down the handle, you can access a special steel knife with a serrated edge as well as an embedded bottle opener. Other tools include a fire-starting rod and emergency whistle.
This modular outdoor shovel will appeal to anyone who wants to keep their payload down when camping.
