The Roman pick axe known as a dolabra was standard issue equipment of the Roman legions. This tool was used for entrenching and camp building, as well as an emergency weapon, at least when ambushed while performing these activities. In reality, many soldiers would have used this tool much more than their weapons. When on the march, every night required the building of a fully fortified camp. Made of carbon steel with a hard wood shaft. Includes a brass edge cover.
