TheTentLab DirtSaw® Deuce #2 - .6 oz Ultralight Backpacking Trowel, Color: Black

This specialized tool is an ULTRA-lightweight trowel for HIKERS, BACKPACKERS and CAMPERS for digging small holes to bury their excrement (poop) when in the hills, mountains and forests where there are no toilets. These are TheTentLab's latest refinement – the DirtSaw(R) Deuce. They're a total rethink of how to use a small hand tool to make a hole in mountain soil. It’s shockingly faster and easier to dig a backcountry latrine hole in some really tough soils. You will use it upside down, sideways, angled, and right-side up while prying, poking, sawing, scraping, cutting, clipping, slicing and scooping. We don't put bumpers on the handle or make them longer because it would interfere with many of these digging modes. We also flared the handle end so you can use the DirtSaw as a pull-saw or a push-saw. DirtSaw #1 - .45 ounces - 6.6"x2.4" - for fanatics ONLY; #2 - .60oz - 6.8"x2.5" - the latest version of our most popular backcountry latrine-hole trowel. It's scoop big enough to moving dirt quickly and its low weight and high toughness is kind of astounding. DirtSaw #3 - .97oz - 7.7"x2.6" – big and strong, a real beast that excels at prying out rocks and moving a lot of dirt quickly. All Deuces are made of 7075-T6 aluminum that meets AMS4045 – the standard that assures you it's HIGH STRENGTH aluminum. The #1 is noticably flexible and springy; the #2 can be flexed but not much; the #3, being the thickest, is almost rigid. We make these in the US and in Korea (by DAC, the world's premier tent pole maker). They are made in compliance with strict environmental protection laws and the material, workmanship, and lifetime guarantee ($4.50 replacement postage in US) are exactly the same regardless of where your Deuce is manufactured. We put "madeinUS" as part of the color name to easily identify our US made products.
