## Overview

The BoglerCo Ultralight Backpacking Trowel is a 0.48 oz, 7.25-inch durable digging tool made from aircraft-grade aluminum with a lifetime warranty. Designed for ultralight backpackers and hikers, it features an ergonomic end cap for comfort, dual-sided serrated edges for cutting roots, and multi-use functionality including tent staking and deadman anchoring. Handmade in the USA, this minimalist tool balances strength, weight, and versatility for the modern adventurer.

## Description

Please note: This is an ULTRALIGHT tool and is extremely lightweight. It is specifically designed for those seeking ultra-lightweight yet reliable gear. Weight: 0.48 oz (13.5 g) Overall length: 7.25 inches Patent Pending design hand made in the USA. This small shovel is designed to be used by ultralight backpackers and hikers as a potty trowel. Lifetime Warranty against breakage under normal use conditions. 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 edge cuts 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. Also 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 not anodized because the 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.

Review: Well made backpacking trowel for digging cat holes - This trowel was well reviewed by Dan Becker and I thought it would be a nice, light replacement for my homemade aluminum angle iron trowel. This trowel by Bogler is well made and will be easier on my hands with its plastic handle tip. Post 1st use Edit: This trowel works fine in somewhat loose soil with small roots. I haven't tried it in rocky soil but it might struggle there. I think with careful use this trowel will do the job in most conditions I will run into in the Rocky Mountains. First use impressions after 8 day backpack trip: This tool really works well as long as some care is taken. In 8 days of use it shows no wear and is ready for more trips.
Review: A Reliable, Comfortable Trowel Worth Every Penny - This backpacking trowel stands out for its durability and excellent grip, making it far more comfortable and dependable than the cheaper alternatives. While slightly larger than some ultralight options, its lightweight build and ergonomic handle make digging quick and painless—no hand strain, no flimsy feel. It's the perfect size to attach to a pack, and its sturdy design gives you confidence when you need to dig fast without worrying about the tool failing or hurting your hand.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Light, strong. Works like a charm.
*by T***N on September 7, 2025*

Excellent. Ridiculously light, strong if you use it as recommended (pry backwards only, and don’t let your kid use it to open the bear can). I’ve taken it on 2 trips now and it digs and saws through roots like a champ.
