One Shovel to Rule Them All

Dig. Chop. Hoe. Pry. Survive. This Is the Tool You Want In Your Hands When SHTF.

One Robust Tool, a Dozen Lifesaving Jobs

The Ready Hour Survival Folding Shovel is way more than just a shovel—it’s a compact survival force multiplier. Built from heavy-duty stainless steel, this tool transforms from shovel to hoe to pry tool to weapon in seconds and offers the reach, strength, and versatility you need when the job gets rough and the gear needs to work.

  • Super Versatile: With a couple of quick clicks, it transforms into a sturdy hoe for gardening. Its extended reach and solid-steel joints are perfect for excavating cars or boulders, prying open doors, hoeing, or just digging a hole.
  • Try to Break It - We Dare You!: Made of solid steel from head to handle (including the joints), and it shows. Most portable shovels have 100-150 pounds of torque, ours has 500...that's 5x stronger! 
  • Sleek and Mobile: Collapses neatly for easy storage. Comes with a handy carry bag.
  • Extendable Handle: Sturdy steel handle extends over three feet, giving you much more leverage than the average folding shovel.

Whether you're clearing brush, digging out a stuck vehicle, or breaking through barriers, this is the multi-tasking beast every bug-out bag, camper, and emergency

Ideal for Preppers, Campers, Homesteaders & Everyday Emergencies

This shovel is compact enough to fit in your vehicle or bug-out bag—but tough enough for rescue work, heavy-duty digging, and even prying open jammed doors or windows. It’s your tool of choice when the terrain is stubborn, the car is stuck, or the job needs muscle.

In a Survival Situation, Your Life Depends on the Quality of Your Tools

When the weather turns deadly, the grid goes down, or you're deep in the woods—your gear can’t fail. That’s why we built this shovel with corrosion-resistant stainless steel, solid steel joints, and a no-nonsense locking mechanism. It won’t bend. It won’t break. It won’t bail when things get ugly.

Built Tough. Packs Small. Works as Hard as You.

This shovel is a powerhouse when extended (38.75") and less than a foot long when folded (11.25"). Whether you’re digging trenches for campfires, leveling a tent site, or pulling your vehicle out of a rut, this tool gives you the leverage and strength you need in a form factor you can easily carry. You may not need it today… or tomorrow… but when the day comes that you DO need it, you and your family will be grateful you were smart enough to grab it when you had the chance.
