This handy tool is a must have in every tool bag! A great tool for mixing, digging, patching, scraping, or repair. The 8" long blade and tang is forged from one piece of steel for strength and flexibility. Forging assures product consistency with high integrity that won't weaken or crack. This margin trowel is then tempered and ground for flexibility and perfect balance. Each blade is then polished to keep mortar centered on the blade and to resist material from sliding. The versatile 2" wide blade allows for a variety of uses. This versatile tool is perfectly balanced with a comfortable weight and flexible blade for extended use. The hardwood handle is attached with a steel ferrule and balanced for ease of use. The smooth hardwood handle is 4-1/2" long. Quality steel and comfortable wood handle allows for a long life for this multipurpose tool. Proudly made in the USA.
