Where it makes sense

The DirtSaw Deuce #3 is the larger, thicker option in TheTentLab’s current trowel line. It is relevant when the destination permits catholes and a small digging tool is part of a complete sanitation kit. The broader size gives a beginner a concrete alternative to buying the lightest possible model without considering grip or soil. Practice the manufacturer’s digging methods in a suitable setting before relying on it. A trowel is unnecessary for routine campground toilets and insufficient where human waste must be packed out. Keep it separate from food and clean equipment. Its purpose is helping carry out an allowed waste-disposal method, not creating new tent pads or trenches.

The tradeoff

Cannot replace required waste pack-out systems or make unsuitable soil appropriate
