The Cold Steel CS92SFS Spetsnaz Special Forces Shovel delivers the functionality of a combat-ready entrenching tool with the durability demanded by military and tactical applications. This 19.68-inch tactical shovel combines a carbon steel blade with an American hickory handle for maximum strength and reliability in demanding field conditions.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard folding shovels that sacrifice strength for portability, the CS92SFS features a fixed one-piece design that eliminates failure points common in hinged models. The carbon steel construction provides superior edge retention compared to stainless alternatives, while the American hickory handle absorbs impact shock better than synthetic materials. This combination delivers a tool capable of handling digging, chopping, and defensive applications without compromise.
Key Features
- Carbon steel blade maintains sharp edge through extended use and abuse
- American hickory handle provides natural shock absorption and grip texture
- 19.68-inch overall length offers optimal leverage for digging and chopping tasks
- Fixed blade design eliminates mechanical failure points found in folding models
- Included leather sheath protects blade edge during transport and storage
- Spetsnaz-inspired design based on Russian special forces specifications
- Flat blade profile suitable for both digging and cutting applications
Field testing demonstrates the CS92SFS performs consistently across varied terrain types, from rocky soil to root-heavy ground. The carbon steel blade cuts through small branches and roots that would dull or damage lesser tools. Military and law enforcement personnel report reliable performance in training exercises and operational environments. The hickory handle maintains grip security even when wet, while the included sheath allows secure belt carry without blade exposure.
