A multi tool for surveyors
It needs to be a:
Hatchet/brush axe/broad cutter
(Can blaze trees, line)
Hammer, pin pounder with waffle head
Rebar bender/puller/straightener
Between 3 and 4 LBS.
Well balanced.
And good digger, up to a foot deep.
(Daydreaming)

Every 3 to 4 pound hammer is a rebar straightener. Swing the rebar and strike the head of the hammer at the bend. Grip the rebar tight or the vibration is no bueno…

I should have said for the SOLO surveyor, on foot.

Something like this with a digger.

That would be considered a burglary tool if it was in the trunk of your car. ????

Although its got only one review, it’s five star, and apparently SWMBO is happy.

I keep a piece of 3/4″ id pipe with me to straighten pins. It works for most and is far better than sinking a stupid nail where the iron turns.
I have a length of 2″ I’d for those big ones.

A quality, oversized, and re made one of these. Out of quality steel.

That looks like a great tool for loamy soil, especially where there are a lot of roots. But in rocky ground I think all of its sharpend edges would quickly get dulled, after which it would just be a funny-looking shovel.

I have always been a big fan of estwing solid steel hatchets.
Hatchet / chisel / sod cutter / nail puller and lays flat against your back while driving.

I refer to this as a B.A.P. Tool (Big Ass Pipe)

Hey, that was shot at Hoober’s in everyone’s favorite town…

Pith Cutter…someone gave me one of these bout 100 years ago, but I have no idea where it is now.

Forget rebar. For a much cheaper alternative get 1/2″ or 3/4″ conduit in 10′ sections. Cut to suit. Its clean and light and cheap. Why didn’t I think of this 20 years ago?
-
Will you look at that, it has everything Nate wants and it’s light weight as well.
What a bargain.

@ Loyal, looks like I need 3 of those!
