Overview

A masonry hand tool from Marshalltown with a wood handle, weighing 4.8 ounces. The light weight and wood handle point to a small trowel-style tool for detail masonry work rather than a heavy mixing or striking tool.

Marshalltown built its name on trowels and masonry finishing tools, and this listing's light weight fits that pattern more than it fits a hammer or chisel. Wood handles remain common on masonry hand tools for their balance and feel, even as many other trade tools have moved to synthetic grips.
