Worked as advertised and for multiple applications.

Great (and necessary) tool for any backpacker. Saving weight with a detachable / lashable handle you create from any stick or pole was a great idea. Haven't seen another with this same feature on the market. Surprisingly strong for how light it is. A little expensive but worth it for the utility and weight savings on the trail.

Love this shovel! Lightweight, and crazy strong. Fits in the hand nicely. Bought a second to keep in my truck. Highly recommend. Great gift for the camper who has everything already.

Bough in May of 2020 and used for the first time. Worked well digging in the hard dry Arizona soil. I actually used the small end to chip away at the dirt and GENTLY pry the rocks out. It was slow going but the shovel worked well. Just remember that its not indestructible. If it dies an early death I will update but until then I am still digging this trowel.

Does everything that any other poop shovel will do with an option to add a handle or use it for a second purpose.

Got the order in fast! They look great! Fast and friendly customer service! Authority received positive feedback from our customers.

A multipurpose trowel that every hiker, camper, adventurer, and outdoor enthusiast needs. Quality craftsmanship and high quality materials! A must add to the pack.

This trowel is very very cool. It works perfectly as described. I would never carry a shovel because they're too heavy, so I'd resort to digging with my hands or a stick. The backpacker's trowel works well because you can tie it to a stick and use it like you would a normal shovel but it is so light there's no reason to not carry it.

I may never have the opportunity to use this because I had a crazy idea and found it is the world’s greatest shoe horn. It is so hard to find a wide one that is thin and light. It may never help me dig a hole because it is busy helping me get on my dress shoes on every day. The wide curve helps my expensive dress shoes last longer. I love it so much I can’t imagine getting it dirty now. Maybe I’ll buy a second one?

Great poop trowel for backcountry camping. Nice and light. And when I am not camping, I keep it in my yard to use in my garden!

Pretty rad little iteration on a woefully neglected product design. For decades, the only option out there were horribly fragile, heavy, and ill conceived plastic poop shovels. This trowel has a very thin profile that increases earth cutting performance. It also is reversible - the narrow end facilitates piercing power, and the wider edge increases scooping efficiency. I don't have experience tying it onto an implement to make a longer handle, but I can say that it is an solid improvement over traditional poop shovels.

My daughter spent the whole week digging in the sand and gravel at our campsite. So easy to use, a two year old could do it. Very sturdy, it still looks brand new. Seems like a very smart design.

I thought it was gimmicky, but this thing is pretty cool. For almost no additional weight, there's just enough added functionality that it's worth it to me. The narrow end does a better job of digging in tough soil than the pointy Tentlab Deuce trowel. The wide end digs in loose soil as well as the pointy trowel. The little holes and straps though ... wow. You really can make a functional shovel with just a stick and this thing. If you're going to be in an area for a while, it's a welcome bit of luxury. I also use that setup as a fire-tender. I can move and manipulate coals in my fire with great precision (just don't melt the plastic straps).

I bought this for my husband as a stocking stuffer. He likes it since it is very lightweight and durable. It holds up in Georgia's Red Clay.

Oh wow! I really am impressed with this trowel. I compared this to my husband's "deuce" trowel and this exceeds it. It is definitely more sturdy. It is slightly longer which helps with digging. I like the option to lash it to a stick or trekking pole for more serious digging. The handle is very comfortable, not like the other trowel which has sharp edges. This is certainly the best lightweight trowel and I hope to see it rise above all others.
