Treasure Scoop (Gem Scoop) 36" Handle

(3 customer reviews)

The 36 inch handled Treasue Scoop is recommended unless you are really tall. Formerly the Estwing Gem Scoop, you now have the Fundamental Rockhound's Treasure Scoop, the PERFECT tool for rockhounding and beachcombing. Estwing stopped making these lapidary tools about two years ago and they've been sorely missed by the rockhound and beachcomber communities ever since. Estwing gave Fundamental Rockhound permission to make the Treasure Scoop and provided their orginal engineering specifications for manufacturing. Rockhounds and beach combers are always bent over! Add more enjoyment to your trip by using the Treasure Scoop to cut out some of the back-breaking work! You'll be able to walk upright after the weekend! Rockhounds are snake bit on the back of the hand or on the cheek more than anywhere else. The Treasure Scoop reaches into snakes' possible hiding places, keeping hands and face farther back from the danger area. The Treasure Scoop is handy as a walking stick when you're climbing over the rocks seeking out those specimens or moving to that next little section of beach.

rockhound widow Jan 30, 2010
By M. Stopani
This works as a cane and a shovel. It's pretty handy, and more importantly, my husband couldn't figure out what it was when he opened it on Christmas. He thought it was something to pick up dog flops, which it probably could be used for that too.

exceptional tool for rock/fossil and nature collectors Nov 03, 2008
By Always N. Iowan "on route 66 in 1966"
I got one of these maybe 20 years ago as a present as I have been known to look for rocks, fossils, artifacts, and other similar objects for my collections.

This tool is great! Another excellent Estwing design. Lightweight. Strong. Makes a great walking cane and the scoop is steadier than not having it. Works very well for moving and picking up stones from water or other situations.

MINIMIZES the need to stoop over (unless your eyesight is not so good).

I hope they never stop making these.

So Nice I bought it Twice Jul 08, 2011
By rwizard "rwizard"
I purchased one of these for myself, and a second one for my father. I had some concern that it might be too heavy and clunky to haul around, but it turned out to be surprisingly light. I carry mine when out relic hunting. It is great for poking and prodding at things, and surprisingly effective for shooing pesky children back to their parents, or pesky dogs back to their owners. Every curmudgeon should have one of these. Great tool.
