Gerber Folding Spade
For reasons I can’t quite explain I’ve wanted a Gerber folding spade for some time now. I have a perfectly decent folding shovel from Gelert or similar, but it’s just not the same. Doesn’t have the same Tonka toy build to it. I like to keep various emergency items in the pick up ‘just in case’, this is why I have a snow shovel in the back. In July. When I’ve never used it even in winter. No matter. What purpose could one have for a folding shovel? Well for digging - obviously! Maybe dig the pick up out of a sand dune which has mysteriously appeared in the town centre. Maybe I’m stuck in the middle of nowhere and just gots to have a dump, or I could be wild camping and have the same need - you’re gonna need to dig out a cat hole.
So you need a folding shovel in your life, and if you’re going to get one of them then you need a good ‘un. Not an eight quid jobbie from the market, nope you want a Gerber. Made from Boron steel and glass filled nylon dontcha know.
Where to buy such a beast?
