Why Choose the Crevice Claw?

Gold is heavy and naturally settles into the lowest available areas, including cracks, depressions, and narrow openings in exposed bedrock. These productive locations can be difficult to clean properly with ordinary digging tools.

The curved claw design allows prospectors to reach into deeper crevices, work packed material loose, and pull it out for panning or processing. Its extended 18-inch reach helps access areas that shorter crevice tools may not reach.

The premium comfort-grip handle also provides improved control while working in wet, muddy, rocky, or abrasive conditions.

Get More Material Out of Productive Bedrock

Use the Crevice Claw to loosen and pull gravel, sand, clay, and small rocks from promising bedrock cracks. Once the larger material has been removed, use a crevice brush, suction tool, spoon, or snuffer bottle to collect the remaining fine material for processing.

Pay particular attention to cracks running across the direction of water flow, natural low spots, and areas behind bedrock obstructions. These locations can act as natural traps where heavy gold settles and remains hidden.

Always wear gloves and eye protection when working around rock, sharp bedrock, and compacted material.
