Know before you buy
No, the trowel is crafted from high-quality stainless steel, which is inherently rust-resistant. While it is built to withstand moisture, we recommend wiping it clean and dry after use to maintain its finish over time.
The integrated cutting edges are specifically designed to slice through tough soil and small roots with ease. The sharp point allows you to penetrate compacted ground, making it much more efficient than a standard rounded trowel.
Yes, its narrow, pointed blade and durable construction make it a favorite among metal detectorists. It is well-suited for digging precise plugs in the ground to retrieve targets without disturbing the surrounding area.
The trowel features a straightforward, ergonomic design focused on durability. While the handle is made for a firm, reliable grip, it is best suited for focused digging tasks rather than heavy-duty, all-day landscaping projects.
The stainless steel surface is smooth and easy to clean. Simply rinse the blade with water and wipe it down with a cloth; because the material is non-porous, dirt and clay do not easily adhere to the metal.
