    rock bar. It’s a pole made entirely of metal with a little wedge at the end. You use it to pry rocks from the earth but because its so heavy you can’t just slide it in and pull it up like a prybar. you kinda just puncture the dirt like a spear and lever straight through the soil to get the rock loose first then pry it out.

      Ah the b’root! We have a heavy vertical axe that is shaped just like that and it is awkward to use but does something no other hand tool seems to be able to do. Stab stab stab and pry. The weight of it does help.
