Review: Great for starting your first kit! - The trowel is very effective and efficient. I love it. I bought mine for an archaeological field school. It worked amazingly. It’s sturdy and I love that the handle and trowel are one piece of metal. This makes it a very sturdy tool. The only thing I would recommend is to sharpen the edges with power prior to going out to the field, using a field file will take you forever.
