The four most important rock hounding tools for general use, in my opinion, and in order, are a geologists pick, a short-handled shovel, a trowl, and a gad. Some people try to substitute an entrenching tool for three of those, but I do not recommend them at all. You have to be pretty serious, fit and have found a spot that justifies it to start breaking out the chisels, pry bars, mattocks, pickaxes, and long-handled shovels. Further, if your in an area that actually justifies rock chisels you really need to sharpen them pretty frequently. As to price you really should not be spending over $40 on any of those items, but cheap shovels and cheap trowls often have the blades bent reverse if you are using them roughly.
