Summarized by Shop
Patented design, hand made in the USA. This small shovel is designed to be used by ultralight backpackers and hikers as a potty trowel.
Made of super tough aircraft grade aluminum which has a strength to weight ratio rivaling that of the highest grade titanium. Use it to pry through rocky soil without fear of bending or damaging the tip. H

In my humble opinion, the most durable, ultralight backpacking trowel out there. I highly recommend this product.

I really dig it... Much better than the old orange plastic shovel. Us seasoned backpackers know all about those.
