Welcome to BoglerCo,
home of the BoglerCo Ultralight Backpacking Trowel 

Our Patented design is hand made in the USA. This small shovel is designed to be used by ultralight backpackers and hikers as a potty trowel.

Made of super tough aircraft grade aluminum with a strength to weight ratio rivaling that of the highest grade titanium. Use it to pry through rocky soil without fear of bending or damaging the tip.

The thin edge cuts cleanly through turf and small roots. The serrated edges cut through medium roots.

The end cap provides comfort and digging power. Use full force while digging without the handle cutting into your palm. The UV-resistant plastic end cap is attached with 2 stainless steel screws.

Holes along the spine improve grip while digging. Thread a rope through the two holes in the center of the trowel to use it as a deadman anchor. Also makes a great spare tent stake, shoehorn and flyswatter. This pocket sized, virtually weightless shovel is also a great companion for gardening and metal detecting.

These trowels are treated with a natural oil to prevent corrosion. They are not anodized because that process involves toxic chemicals that I don’t want in my home shop or our environment. The surface will show wear, however a well-used trowel gains a simple rustic aesthetic all its own.

Do not use this product in fire. Exposure to open flame will change the heat treatment properties of the metal, weakening it.

Nine Fun Colors!
