Are you kidding. I've used at least three different free Unix
toolkits under Windows: CygWin, MSys and UWin. All come with
fully functional shells, plus all of the more frequently used
utilities. (The shell alone, without the utilities, isn't going
to help you much.) There are almost certainly freely available
non-Unix shells as well; I'd be surprised if there wasn't an
open source implementation of Rexx, for example.
