Perhaps it was the false prophet Harold Camping, and the Mayan calendar that have caused much hullabaloo with doomsday scenarios. To capitalize on this public fascination, The National Geographic channel has produced “Doomsday Preppers” a new reality show about folks stockpiling, arming and preparing for the end of the world.
Well, I don’t know about the end of the world, but I do like tools; tools that make my life easier.
A recent episode showcased a prepper who invented an interesting tool called a "Crovel." The Crovel is a combination shovel, crowbar and a myriad of other tools, which can also be converted into a chair and it even has a bottle opener! At 5.5 lbs it’s easy to carry and is compact enough to be kept in the car trunk, or garage.
Here’s a list of the various tools that make up the Crovel:
- Shovel
- Crowbar
- Bottle/Can opener
- Pryer/Nail Remover
- Hammer
- Hoe
- Axe
- Serrated Knife
- Machete
- Saw
- Cleaver
- Grappling Hook
