Layaway Information

Layaway Policies

We offer a layaway plan on select products so you may pay for your order over a period of 60 days. Products that are eligible for layaway will show "Layaway Available: Yes" on the product page.

Here's how it works:

The total amount of the order excluding shipping, tax, or fees is divided into three (3) equal payments. The first payment is due with the order, the second payment is due 30 days later, and the final payment is due 60 days after the order.

There is a $15 non-refundable fee for layaway orders. This fee is added to the first payment along with the shipping and any tax. The first payment is made when the order is placed.

Example: Your order total is $300 plus $12.75 shipping and handling. If you select the layaway option, your payments would be:

  • $127.75 (1/3 of purchase = $100 + $15 layaway fee + $12.75 shipping)
  • $100.00 (1/3 of purchase = $100)
  • $100.00 (1/3 of purchase = $100)

If your initial payment is made by credit card, we will automatically process the 2nd and 3rd payments at the appropriate time using the same credit card information. You will be reminded via email that a payment will be charged. If you need to change this for any reason, please contact us.

For payments made other than credit card, payment must be received within seven (7) days of the due date or the order is subject to cancellation. You will receive a reminder via email that a payment is due.

If you wish to complete payment early and have your order shipped, you may contact us at any time during the 60 day period. There is no penalty for prepayment.

Additional products may be added to a layaway order without penalty. A new payment schedule will be calculated based on when additional products are added.

If you wish to complete payment early and have your order shipped, you may contact us at any time during the 60 day period. There is no penalty for early payment.

Cancellations of layaway orders are subject to a restocking/processing fee of 10% of the order total (not including tax and shipping costs). This restocking fee is in addition to the $15 non-refundable layaway fee.

Overview

You need a shovel for life? Meet Panzer Spade.



A shovel that you would like to pass on to your children after years of use. Permanent. Handy. Reliable.



We cannot promise that it is indestructible. But we are close...

When other shovels fall apart after one season, ours lasts a dozen years with normal use - without any repairs.

What we mean by normal use?

You can pound it into gravel or other hard ground - and you still won't see any damage from it. And with the sharpened edges of the head, cutting through roots or branches will be almost as easy as with an axe.

In short, it is suitable both for ordinary garden work and for an extreme bushcraft trip.

How is such endurance possible?

This is the work of Polish blacksmiths, which you can feel in your hand.

After the initial laser cutting, the shovel head is forged by our own hands from 2.5 mm chrome vanadium spring steel, which is then hardened to a hardness of 55 HRC.

On the other hand, the shovel shank is made by the turner from acacia wood, so the material will not crack even under heavy loads.

In addition, the head and the stylus are coated with natural linseed varnish, which repeatedly increases the resistance of the shovel to the harmful effects of rain, snow or sunshine.

Some say the Panzer Spade is as durable as the People's Army infantry shovel.

It is certainly much lighter than it, as it weighs only 0.5 kg. That's as much as 3 times less weight to carry!

At the same time, the Panzer Spade fits perfectly in the hand, so it is extremely handy. And its dimensions will allow you to strap it comfortably to your backpack or belt - without fear of it getting in the way when walking.

But you don't have to take our word for it. Here is proof of the durability of the Pancer Spade shovel:

Still have doubts?

Order a shovel for trial. And if the vane breaks down within 2 years, we will repair or replace it at our expense. That way, you don't risk buying equipment below the standard you expect.

Want to have a shovel for the next dozen years? Order Panzer Spade!
