Vargo Titanium Shepherds Hook Stake with Fluorescent Orange Head (6 Pack) | Camping Tent Stakes | 0.3 Ounces (8 Grams) 6.5” L x 0.14” D (165 x 3.5mm) | Ultralight Durable Tent pegs | Model T-117

Light weight and works very well especially on rocky grounds, doesn't bend easily. One of my favorite tent stakes

Swapped these out for my steel pegs that came with my tent. The current steel pegs are great, but all 6 of these are lighter than 1 of my steel pegs (note: unscientific scale of feeling the weight in each hand), you can clearly feel that they are lighter. I like the thin shaft and large hook as I don't have to worry about it fitting through the tent grommets. The hi viz heads are helpful once staked, to see visually where I staked. I'm going to order more.

These are great ultralight tent stakes. The hook on the end makes it easy to hold the tent guy lines without having them slip off. I wish they came in a brightly colored lightweight bag. I’ve left 2 sets now at campsites because I put them down and forget them. The good thing to know is that I’ve purchased them again, twice!

These stakes shaved ounces from my hiking kit

Expensive for what they are, but they are worth it to always have some stakes (and hopefully steaks) on hand at all times in your bag without any significant weight penalty. The real reason I went titanium is because I could use these as cross braces through holes in a piece of roof flashing I use as a wind shield for my mini stove, to turn it into a pot stand. These work perfect for that. Then when you are done with that, you can take those 2 stakes and put them back in your tarp. Update 2015-11-24: Used 6 of these on a Kelty 12 tarp under 50mph gust winds this week and they held even during the light rain that muddied the ground. Was seriously impressed they held through the night. Just be sure you put them in at an angle and bang them all the way into the ground. Even after banging them into the ground that seemed to have some rocks under it, they didn't bend. I picked up another set of 6 just to have because of how useful they are and weigh practically nothing. Overall, quite impressed even considering the price.

Light weight but also light duty. Not sure these would hold up in really bad weather but works good in conjunction with some heavier duty stakes.

As my younger generation amigos and amigas would say, these are da bomb! These work SO MUCH BETTER than my big time name brand stakes from my cottage, super expensive, ultralight tent company. These hold so well. I usually have to put giant rocks on my stakes to hold the tent (my shelter is non-freestanding and relies on stakes to keep it up and taught), but these little guys work great on their own. This is my 2nd set to fully replace all my stakes.

I'm definitely not a "gram weenie" or ultralighter, but I love high quality products and these are an affordable luxury. I needed some more shepherds crook stakes, and figured why not save some weight and splurge a little bit in the process. Saving weight in the area of tent stability/security isn't always the best idea, but these are part of a set of several different types of stakes in the camping kit, so they work well.

Simply great lightweight pegs.

I have a number of Ti tent-pegs, but these ones are probably the best for firm ground. The "shepherd crook" end makes sure the guy-rope doesn't slip off.

I wanted to spend the minimum on tent stakes so I bought the Coghlans 9-inch 4-pack for $4 in 2018. These are v-profile stakes so are good for firm ground. They are made of aluminum so 8 of them weigh 142g with attached cord (that facilitates pulling them up). Continuing in cheapskate mode, I purchased the Coleman 10-inch 4-pack for $7 in 2019 to complement the Coghlans. These are nail type pegs, so can take hammering but might pull up on their own easily. They are made of steel so 8 of them weigh a whopping 717g (with packaging). I decide that these was just too heavy. I gave in to temptation and got the Vargo titanium shepherd’s hook 6-pack of stakes for $26 in 2020. These are nail type stakes and half of them have a fluorescent orange head so you can see them with a faint light in the dark. They were all supposed to have the fluorescent head. The 6 weigh 45g. I combined the Vargos with quality v-profile aluminum stakes from Gossamer Gear. 8 of those weigh 96g with added cord for pulling up.

Cumplen con lo esperado y sí parecen de titanio

the weight is perfect but i wish they had about another inch in length, they have held up pretty well and I have yet to seriously bend one out of shape I've used them with 3 different tents and about 6 trips. if your ultra light adjacent and have smaller low to the ground tent you probably wont be bothered by the size.
