Is the handle easy to use to carry to camp?

I have never used the handle because I use this bag as a waterproof layer in my backpack. My clothes and items I want to keep dry go in the bag and the bag goes inside my backpack.

yes it is easy to carry. kind of like a nice size box with handles. It only cools about 30 maybe 40 degrees lower than ambient temperature, so really wouldnt think it would be suitable for meats and other perishables at the beach. Ice chest works best for the beach.

Not sure how it compares, but I used my shovel to dig out roots from a yard in addition to taking it camping and it held up very well. I'm happy with it, even if it is considered slightly larger than normal for a camping shovel. Just make sure you tighten the threaded collar correctly which stiffens the pan and handle connection. There was a complaint here that said the shovel was loose. They didn't tighten it correctly.

Yes, I have been carrying it around in my pocket for several months now without any problems. I haven't had any issues with the handle at all. It is a metal handle wrapped in hard plastic.

It's as easy as they come. I have no problem with it and I love the handle on it.

the blade is flat ground. Seems ok for camp use but I wouldn't baton with it. The handle is hefty but the blade is relatively thin in comparison with my BK9. You'll always be fighting rust though.

I would not say "easily". the handle easily folds down, but the seat post is screwed to the standing platform. Also, it's fairly heavy, so be aware of that if you want to lift it into the back of your car. However, overall, it's a great scooter for flat and mild hills. Note that the brake is weak, especially if going downhill.

No, it does not have a handle. You have to carry it by picking it up from the bottom. It is not heavy though, so it is easy to move from one place to another.

I am a 60 yr old woman and I can carry this.. it has no handles though and my personal opinion is that it can be moved without a great deal of effort but I wouldn't consider it portable.

As for quality.....I see what S. VILLAGOMEZ says, the handle materiel ( plastic ) could be made sturdier.....however the pole and screw portion are accepting strong. Remember it's a light weight design " to be easily carried " and it is light. And I love mine. The handles work just fine but you need to exercise " finesse "

Extremely easy to turn handle. Even with some reduced strength it should be easy to use.

The handle seems comfortable to me, it is a good size and the cane is constructed well. Used it while walking around the Disney parks when tired. Did not need it all the time just when tired. Found it comfortable to handle and easy to install, carried it in a backpack when not in use.

The handle is just a smooth metal tube but is fairly comfortable in shape. I wrapped mine in baseball bat wrap and love it.

The handle is made of a very hard, thick and substantial plastic substance. I am not concerned about it breaking. It's great and the gear mechanism makes easy to squeeze.

Absolutely. This is an excellent bushcraft axe. The handle is as long as you would want for bushcraft, but easily carried on a pack.

There is a carrying type handle on the top of the unit which makes carrying very easy.

Yes. Mechanism is very simple. Handle with a handlebars click in and and out when you need it. Makes it easy to store and transport.
