When you got to go in the backcountry, finding the spot and digging a hole is the first challenge. The BoglerCo® Ultralight Trowel makes digging a cat hole easy with a comfortable grip that won’t cut into your hand. All while weighing less than three nickels.
The main advantage of this trowel is the comfort and digging power provided by the handle end cap. Other trowels tend to dig into your palm. The end cap allows you to use full force while digging without the handle cutting into your palm. It’s so much better.
This trowel is made of super tough aircraft-grade aluminum with a strength-to-weight ratio rivaling that of titanium. It's one of the lightest trowels available yet will pry through rocky soil without fear of bending or damaging the tip. The thin edge cuts cleanly through forest duff, mountain grass, and small roots. The serrated edge cuts through medium roots. Handles all soil conditions from sandy, loamy, rooty, to rocky.
The handle edges are smoothed for comfort while holes along the spine improve the grip. In a pinch, this trowel also makes a great spare tent stake. Or a deadman anchor in sandy or snowy conditions by threading cordage through the two center holes.
Do not use this trowel with a fire. Exposure to an open flame will change the heat treatment of the metal and may weaken it.
