Description of Folding Garden Trowel Measures 5-3/4" x 2-1/8" and Includes a Black Canvas Belt Carrier
This one's easier to toss, cuz it folds in half. Johnny Appleseed would have carried one of these if he'd had our web address. Our folding garden trowel is a 5-3/4" x 2-1/8" when inside its black canvas belt carrier, but opens and locks to 8-7/8" long. All stainless steel, so there are no rust problems for you itinerant gardeners.Tools and Hardware Reviews of Folding Garden Trowel Measures 5-3/4" x 2-1/8" and Includes a Black Canvas Belt Carrier
Customer Review: Sturdy and compact but a little heavy. Good Value.
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a very solid tool and quite small when folded. I purchased this as a possible replacement for my Fiskers plastic trowel for use while backpacking. This folding metal trowel does save space but is a bit heaver that the plastic trowel. As space was not a big concern in my big pack and the plastic trowel is lighter and just as strong, I put this folding shovel in my small day-hike kit and kept the plastic one for my main pack.
It takes a bit of practice to use this, as squeezing the handle will let it fold. However it is a simple matter to find a grip that works. The price is right, and it's a functional tool that is well suited to uses where space is at a premium. The lightweight canvas carrier also prevents the trowel from damaging other items packed with it.
I also was given a name-brand version of this trowel that costs five times more. There are cosmetic differences and the lips that hold the handle from folding are a bit better on the expensive version, but the function is the same.
