This small shovel is handmade in the USA with a patented design for ultralight backpackers and hikers. Crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum, it offers strength comparable to high-grade titanium. It can pry through rocky soil without bending or damaging the tip. Holes along the spine improve grip, and two center holes allow it to be used as a deadman anchor. It also functions as a spare tent stake, shoehorn, and flyswatter. Compact and lightweight, it is a versatile tool for backpacking, gardening, and metal detecting.
