A further development of the M05 field shovel pocket we designed and manufactured for the Defence Forces. The old one was very good, this one is even better! As with our new magazine pockets, the PALS fastening can be braided into sturdy 50 mm belt loops and the flap is closed with an almost completely indestructible "mulcher" instead of a plastic buckle.
The entire construction of the pocket is a special wide strip, which is significantly more durable than fabric. This is an essential detail for carrying a tool like a field shovel. The open corners of the pocket allow sand, mud, water and snow to escape unhindered.
The flap of this pocket is closed with a polyethylene reinforced folding tab, known internationally as a "tuck tab" and locally as a "mulcher", and Velcro. The folding tab is mechanically very simple, but also very reliable compared to plastic sleeves, fasteners and adhesive tape alone. This is almost identical to the lockable reinforced end of our PALS fastening flaps, but shorter and equipped with o-rings for quick opening.
The sticker tape also allows the pocket to remain reliably closed at half-open, and allows the flap to be closed quickly without locking the folding tab. The hook side of the Velcro can be covered with a sewn-in cover strip for near-silent operation.
