About as light as a stake can get!
The innovative design of the Atani Titanium Tent Stakes include a wide upper portion to withstand guy-line forces at the source while the lower section is sharp and thin in order to penetrate hard ground. The upper indentation captures the loop in your guy-line and holds it secure when inserted into the ground and the flat design creates an anti-rotation characteristic.
Sold as a set of 4.

United States United StatesAmazing Atanis
Thoroughly impressed by these stakes. I have the 6" stakes (you can get 8" stakes on his website) and the carbon fiber storage tube (also on his website) and took these for a week long backpacking trip to Philmont Scout Ranch near Cimarron, NM. These were the only stakes I took. I used them with my Zpacks Plex Solo and never had a problem.
United StatesThe lightest stakes so far
Until now lightest titanium stakes have weighed about 0.21 oz. The same goes for alternative materials. Atani stakes use sophisticated design as well as lightweight titanium to achieve lower, perhaps minimum, weight. I wish I had thought of this: analysis of the stress on a tent stake reveals that stress on each segment of the body decreases with depth. That’s the crux of it! Duh! The grit in the chewing gum is that rocks, gravel and sand are no friendlier to these slender, slim stakes than to any other UL alternatives. Of course, the more versatile alternatives such as Y- and V-section stakes weigh 2-3 times more than Atani stakes. As with much UL gear, the user may be required to exercise some ingenuity.
United StatesAmazing and surprising!
Amazing and surprising! They are so light and grip so well in the soil - I was blown away
United StatesExtremely lightweight but not that functional
These really are light. One of them bent on first use, and I don’t think I’d ever trust them as the only stake I bring. I used them on non-structural corners of my gatewood cape, and they’re ok, but I probably wouldn’t buy them again. An old-fashioned aluminum hook works better and doesn’t weigh much more.
