Predator Tools Model 59 or model 64 are the best over landing shovels in the world if you ask me.
Made by a company who sells tools for metal detecting hobbyists.
But actually perfect for overlanding. Chromoly blade that’s thick and will take a sharp edge if that’s your bag (personally I’m on team ‘shovels dig and saws cut’ but that’s me). Heavy enough to murder a moose, but not so heavy that they are a pain to use. Fully welded 4130 tubing for handles. Absolutely bombproof.
Lots of DMOS fans in the community but in my opinion anything that folds or telescopes, or anything aluminum, will eventually need to be replaced. I expect my model 59 will last me the rest of my life. And for what DMOS sells their stuff for you could buy four model 59/64.
