Never seen one like that before. Good idea

I could see it working in situations where a blade type would not.

Gives me a little project to help pass a slow day. Thanks!

This gives you an anchor point for winching (Colquitts pics sorta make it obvious) When there's nothing to wrap a rope or tree saver around or no spot a shovel-type anchor will get into, you can wedge this device in a small crack in the rocks and create an anchor point.

Just whipped this one up real quick. Steel rod with 3 "blades" brazed on the business end. I've named it "the Key Anchor":



Having one more option is almost never a bad idea. Especially when you're stuck in the backcountry.

BTW, next time you are near Dicks or any place that sells golf stuff, look for some Footjoy shoestrings. They make fabulous tow ropes...
