Second: The shovel is THE WORST noob weapon that Crossfire holds. Even the AN-94, which is a Scar light with more power, can not tip to the level of noobness of the shovel.
The reason for this, is the shovel's secondary attack bug. As soon as the player enters the secondary attack of the shovel, which is a quite long attack, his hit-boxes are out of line and he can tank all damage normally done to him.
If you also add a high ping to a shovel, it becomes even worse. Because then you get the mile long shovel bug, which kills even if you clearly dodged the attack.
And finally, dodging a shovel is near impossible, because it not only has a long reach, but also strikes in horizontal 180° angle. If the player also makes a 180° to the left during his attack, it will cover the full 360°.
So, yes. The shovel is better than the axe, but you will be branded an ubernoob for using it, will be despised in modes like GM, Sniper-, and Knife-Only matches, and will likely be kicked if players get tired of you tanking their every hits.

Shovel is very easy to use, but is considered a noob weapon (as suggested by some UI mods) because of its range and glitchy use. Axe is more pro and is just as powerful, with a slightly reduced range. Hope this helps.
All true here, and since the axe you get in the coupon list. i say axe all the way -
Shovel is not a one shot kill to the head with left click attack (it's 90 damage to the head)... but axe is.
I can easily defeat shovel players, shovel doesn't have an effective left click/slash, and its right click attack is a one second delay (which gives me a chance to right click knife him in the head before he hits me)... but sometimes, when the axer knows his move, uses only left click attacks (axe left clicks are one hit kill to the head), and always aim for the head of their opponent, that means I, and nobody, practically cannot get into his personal space without getting killed.
Axe gets the edge.
. You need perfect movement to strike with a katana before to be killed by an oponent
