It is specifically designed for those seeking ultra-lightweight yet reliable gear. Weight: 0.48 oz (13.5 g) Overall length: 7.25 inches Patent Pending design hand made in the USA. This small shovel is designed to be used by ultralight backpackers and hikers as a potty trowel. Lifetime Warranty against breakage under normal use conditions. Made of super tough aircraft grade aluminum with 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. The thin edge cuts cleanly through turf and small roots. The serrated edge cuts through medium roots. The end cap provides comfort and digging power. Use full force while digging without the handle cutting into your palm. The UV-resistant plastic end cap is attached with 2 stainless steel screws. Holes along the spine improve grip while digging. Also thread a rope through the two holes in the center of the trowel to use it as a deadman anchor. Also makes a great spare tent stake, shoehorn and flyswatter. This pocket sized, virtually weightless shovel is also a great companion for gardening and metal detecting. These trowels are not anodized because the process involves toxic chemicals that I don’t want in my home shop or our environment. The surface will show wear, however a well-used trowel gains a simple rustic aesthetic all its own. Do not use this product in fire. Exposure to open flame will change the heat treatment properties of the metal, weakening it. Safety Warning Do not use in fire Review: Great ultra lightweight backpacking trowel - Really very light at around 13g and just as strong as the one it will replace which is a Sea To Summit one which is 87g. All those grams add up on the trail. With 95 miles to walk in a week, I need to save weight wherever possible and this is a great addition to my kit. I saw this trowel on a video by YouTuber Kris Gleave. He wrapped the handle in duct tape to make it more comfortable to hold - backpackers should carry a small amount of duct tape for repairs etc, so this should not be considered an unnecessary weight gain. Anyway, you could use comfortably without adding tape, but the handle edges are angular (not sharp, just angular). Review: Quality - Good product. Well designed and engineered. Ultra light ## Features - Weight: 0.48 oz (13.5g) Ultralight! - Tough and Reliable - Will last a lifetime of use. Lifetime Warranty. - Made in the USA. - End cap provides comfort and digging power, use full force while digging without the handle cutting into your palm. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B097Z3F6F3 | | Best Sellers Rank | 29,854 in Garden ( See Top 100 in Garden ) 69 in Gardening Trowels | | Blade Material | Aluminium | | Brand | BoglerCo | | Brand Name | BoglerCo | | Colour | Orange | | Country Of Origin | USA | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 1,547 Reviews | | Grip Type | End cap | | Handle Material | Aluminium | | Is Foldable | No | | Item Dimensions | 18.4 x 5.7 x 1.3 centimetres | | Item Type Name | Backpacking Trowel | | Item Weight | 0.48 Ounces | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 18.4 x 5.7 x 1.3 centimetres | | Item weight | 0.48 Ounces | | Manufacturer | BoglerCo | | Manufacturer Part Number | 1 | | Material | Aluminium , Plastic | | Material Type | Aluminium, Plastic | | Model Number | 6 | | Style | Compact | | Style Name | Compact | | UPC | 195893109456 | ## Product Details - **Blade material:** Aluminium - **Brand:** BoglerCo - **Colour:** Orange - **Grip type:** End cap - **Handle material:** Aluminium - **Is foldable:** No - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 18.4 x 5.7 x 1.3 centimetres - **Item weight:** 0.48 Ounces - **Material:** Aluminium, Plastic - **Style:** Compact ## Images ![Ultralight Backpacking Trowel, 0.48 oz (13.5g) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61E9WoFjQkL.jpg) ![Ultralight Backpacking Trowel, 0.48 oz (13.5g) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/919S1VFvVjL.jpg) ![Ultralight Backpacking Trowel, 0.48 oz (13.5g) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91EpKQDryPL.jpg) ![Ultralight Backpacking Trowel, 0.48 oz (13.5g) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91A+OQLRy2L.jpg) ![Ultralight Backpacking Trowel, 0.48 oz (13.5g) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91sl5VcupFL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: will this get through TSA as a carryon?** A: According to TSA rules, tools longer than 7 inches cannot be in Carry-on, they must be checked in.
