Backcountry Backpacking Trowel (Weighs 32g)
Brand: Tye Works
Color: Mill Finish (Hand Brushed) Aluminum

This is a lightweight trowel designed to dig small cat-holes in soft to medium compacted soil. It is not designed to be strong enough to work in heavily compacted soils, or rocks. No ultralight trowel will handle this type of soil, but go ahead and try. If you break it, send it back to us (Tye Works) and we will send you a replacement. This trowel was created to be comfortable to use in most situations, while keeping the weight at about an ounce. Consider that if it is very difficult to dig your cat-hole, you are planning on doing your business in the wrong place, and should look for a more suitable location.

Weighs about 32g (1oz.) without lanyard. As these are hand shaped and polished there is a slight variation from one to the next. Lanyard colors may vary.
Cut from 16 gauge (1/16") aluminum sheet, the Tye Works Backcountry Trowel is up to 50% stronger than similar wilderness trowels. It is unconditionally guaranteed for life. Send it back to us (Tye Works) and we will replace it. Length is just over 6" to measure the depth of your hole.
Handmade in Washington State from post production materials. It is not anodized to avoid use of caustic etching agents.
All edges (Except the front) are rounded and polished smooth by hand to insure comfort and safety.
Makes proper backcountry (Leave No Trace) sanitation simple. Perfect gift for any backpacker or wilderness traveller.
