## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nothing beats the classics!
*by D***L on July 4, 2025*

Quality is there; this is just a classic tool for every archeologist and field school student. It's comfortable in the hand, reasonably priced, and does the job. The size is ideal for most jobs, however, if you're entering field school I might recommend an additional trowel in a smaller size for detail work or even a dental tool to add to your repertoire--try it first and see if you like it of course before purchasing a bunch of stuff your professor probably has already, but boy it was nice to have my own trowel.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Also not for stabbing
*by B***S on March 26, 2025*

I bought this as a christmas present for my daughter who had just gotten a bachelor's degree in anthropology which has ties to archaeology. She got why I gave this for her so I suppose the gesture was a success. She will probably never use it and I will probably never see it again but it sure looks solid.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid trowel
*by D***D on December 27, 2015*

Overall, a fine trowel. My application was archaeology. It takes a good edge, and keeps its sharpness well with use. I've used it in various soil conditions. I have a smaller trowel that I like better. I thought "bigger is better" when I bought this, but honestly this sometimes feels too big and clumsy for finer detail work. The smaller trowels offer more precise control. However, since archaeology trowels are sharpened as they dull, eventually this means I will file this trowel down to the more comfortable size of the smaller trowels as the material is worn away. So it's not a huge complaint from me. The trowel is solid and made of quality materials. The holster is great for archaeology so your sharp trowel isn't left around on the ground to be stepped on or lost. 4 stars.
