US “T” M1910 Handled Entrenching Tool Political Flags and Standartes Due to the racial makeupUS T M1910 Handled Entrenching Tool This is a sturdy original US entrenching tool with the iconic T shaped handle. This was originally called a shovel but the name was officially designated as an entrenching tool. It measures 22 inches (55. 88cm) in length. The wooden handle measures 5 inches (12. 7cm) in width. This tool is sturdy enough to be used as a weapon in close combat if you had too. It would not be fun to be hit in the face with this thing!
