Being prepared for every situation is often a key element of survival and the TUSK Survival Shovel may just be the ideal tool for dealing with inclement winter conditions. Designed and created by adventure brand MMTH Gear, this survival tool focuses mainly on clearing large snow drifts and comes equipped with multiple features that make this task a breeze. Built to be incredibly compact, the TUSK Survival Shovel can easily fit into a bag or compartment. This compact size also allows the tool to fit under cars and other objects, to clear them of compacting snow.
The tool itself is comprised of an impact-resistant and lightweight chassis that has been shaped in a unique fashion for comfortable use. While the TUSK Survival Shovel functions primarily as a snow shovel, the tool improves on this central feature with a retractable steel digging spade, an extra-wide scraper and elastomer wipers.
