    First, the ones at Vargo appear to be v shaped, not y shaped. My interest is mainly in shepherds hooks and V shape as far as hammering strength. I was curious as to if Ti Y shaped stakes were even produced. The only y shaped stakes I have seen were aluminum and I think they were MSR mini groundhogs.

    Scarebear, thanks for the 2 internet spots. I do have to get other things as well. Both were new to me.

    Vargo makes the Y stake. But, it is in Al. I have no idea why, except that it would cost too much to manufacture...if Vargo won't make it out of Ti, there must be a damn good reason...

    I stand corrected. I did not realize that Vargo had a y shaped stake . It is also cheaper than msr.
