 This Shovel Is Not Made For Digging The Dark Moon Sapper Shovel is a 60cm foam shovel, handcrafted to mimic the Russian MPL-50 entrenching tool for your cosplay or LARP needs. This particular military shovel would not have been used for digging, but for hand-to-hand combat (and sometimes as a cooking tool or trowel)! Its wooden handles were polished, not painted, and were molded to fit the hand perfectly, minimizing the danger of fighting in wet conditions. Our imitation captures this same rough, dangerous feeling. Constructed from EVA foam around a solid fiberglass rod, this Sapper Shovel is finished with a durable coat of latex to prevent it from breaking and to give it a smooth, realistic surface. The handle is hand-carved and painted to look like real wood grain, while the head has a nice rusty, grungy finish. The shovel head isn’t really useful for digging or cooking, but it’s great for beating up zombies in your favorite post-apocalyptic game! It includes fine, realistic details like nail heads and overlapping plates. Use this makeshift weapon against gangs of grease, undead, and radioactive bugs – and look authentically cool in the process. An Essential Russian Tool In ancient times, Roman legionaries used entrenching tools to dig trenches around their camps. The sapper shovel, also called the MPL-50, was invented by a Danish officer in 1869 The MPL-50 was used by the Russian Empire, the Soviet Union, and beyond for hand-to-hand combat.
