## Overview

The German WWII Folding Shovel Klappspaten is a meticulously crafted foldable spade, inspired by the original design from 1938. Made exclusively for IMA, it features a tempered steel blade, a robust hardwood handle secured with steel pins, and a compact design that makes it a versatile tool for outdoor enthusiasts and history buffs alike.

## Description

New Made Item: In 1938, the klappspaten, or foldable spade, appeared, being the precursor of all modern spades of this kind. Including the 1943 American Copy. Production of the Klappspaten was halted mid-war by its high cost and overlong production time. The end-user was of secondary consideration in this type of decision! This newly made production is exclusive to IMA and is of the highest quality unlike the flimsy imports from Asia currently available on the market. It was copied directly from an original Klappspaten in the IMA collection. We use a tempered steel blade, with correct screw tight deep red colored ribbed steel locking cuff, hardwood handle all secured with steel pins. We even stamp German WW2 era replicated makers marks with a 1940 date for added authenticity. There is no finer reproduction on the market today, and YES you can actually dig with it! Specifications- Length Extended: 26 Length Folded: 18.5 inches Blade Width: 5 5/8 Blade Length: 8.25 Weight: 3lbs

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tough & portable!
*by M***. on September 29, 2016*

This thing is a beast, in a good way! Feels incredibly solid. I love the 3-position locking mechanism (folded back, open 90 degrees, open the full 180 degrees). This is definitely staying in the storage compartment of our Vistabule teardrop trailer!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent repro
*by P***  on May 27, 2023*

Excellent folding spade repro. Only inaccuracy is the nut material

### ⭐⭐⭐ It’s ok
*by M***N on August 17, 2022*

Went to use it like a pick folded at a 90 degree angle and the nut ended up binding on the threads and that was in soft sand no hard clay or packed dirt! I had to use a hammer and tap the nut back so I could loosen it up and fold the shovel. The shovel is built like a tiger 2 tank, strong, beefy, nice looking, just not reliable! Like the tiger 2’s transmission the nut on this shovel is the weak link! Other than that it’s a decent shovel
