Frequently Asked Questions
Where is this shovel made?
Our shovels are made right here in the U.S.A. They are designed in Salt Lake City, Utah and manufactured in the United States.

At a 10 to 1 fulcrum, the Delta can lift 1,000 pounds. Given that the world record RAW deadlift is 1,015 lb (460 kg), we’ve got you covered.
What makes the DMOS Delta Shovel special?
We have NOTHING against contractor shovels. Contractor shovels dig to China just fine.
The Delta shovel is designed to solve the biggest digging problem which is that sometimes you have to dig and you don’t have a normal shovel with you. That sucks. We’ve been there.
We set out to make a shovel into a tool that is always at hand and never in the way, and offers superior functionality and full-sized format when you use it. And solve it we did. We have hundreds of 5 star reviews, editorial coverage of the Delta in Survivor’s Edge, Recoil Offgrid, Esquire, and more and this shovel is a work of art.
With a milled connector, telescoping indexed locking shaft, oversized brace that attaches to the blade with twelve smash rivets, the Delta is a beast of a tool that is built to last and be handed down. The Delta Shovel is there when you need it and won’t fail you.
How do you suggest I keep my Delta with me?
You can choose from either our US-made 1,000 denier nylon everyday carry bag or our rattle-free, aircraft grade aluminum vehicle mount that fits up to any 2” bar and is compatible with nearly all roof racks and truck bed lifts. It’s a versatile, universal, locking mount.
