I have not seen one of these in use, doesn't mean they aren't there. Several of the tool heads look much like common wildland fire hand tools. The "mattock" is identical to whatis referred to as a "Pulaski" and the "Hoe" and "Rake" are opposite sides of the same tool called a "Mcleod" Looks like a mildly interesting piece of kit, but I'm not turning in my Pulaski for one.
I tend to agree on the plastic handled tools, but on the other hand, a Nupla handled sledgehammer is a thing of beauty if you have to use it for very long.
Good times,
