I am a big believer in leaving no trace, and this is the perfect weight and size trowel for the job. I love that it’s titanium so it weighs practicaly nothing. It is smaller than I’d imagined from the pictures, but honestly, now that I’ve seen it, I think it’s perfect. I don’t need to dig that big of a hole anyway! I like that it can be used as a tent stake in an emergency. It also has a bottle opener and built in small wrench. The edges are serrated so you can saw through roots. You can really tell that a lot of thought was put into a simple little tool. That’s why I like supporting small businesses! Near Zero cares!
