MARSHALLTOWN Archaeology Pointing Trowels, Wood Trowel Handle, 51mm Width, 102mm Length, With Leather Holster, London Pointing Trowel, Heavy-Duty, Made in the USA, ATH114S

Exactly what I needed! Works great!

Very good quality tool, works as it should and lasts.

Like many other people who purchased this, the only complaint is about the holster, which appears to be made for a larger sized tool. I really don't care about that so five stars

I bought this to help a friend with an archeological excavation. The tool is clearly of high quality (weld of blade to handle is top notch) and the case is very nice.

The trowel arrived well within the promised delivery date. It was new as advertised. My daughter was thrilled to receive it and intends to use it on an upcoming archaeological dig in Crete.

While the quality of this tool and the accompanying hard leather holster is excellent, the fit of the tool in the holster is pretty loose. I suspect that the holster is intended to accommodate a larger trowel. In any case, both items are excellent, even if they do not play as well together as I would like.In an effort to leverage this deficit into something positive, I have also taken to storing my margin trowel Marshalltown 52 5-Inch by 2-Inch Margin Trowel in the holster. It isn't a pretty combination, but it works.My overall conclusion is that the holster/trowel combo will work for most of us, but Indiana Jones is going to lose his trowel in the first good fight scene. Of course, be sure to order one of these 60" Old West Style Bullwhip if that's your style of archaeology

Bought this item for work purposes for archeological field test. My supervisor used one, having purchased it in England many years ago. Have yet to use it, as alas I am in the office more than I like this season. Its straight diamond shaped outline and small size is great for those smaller test pits. Of course, cannot find anything like this in Anchorage, Alaska.

Used for an archeological dig far away. The wood handle is nice so it doesn't get too hot in the sun. the bottom is perfectly flat so doesn't leave marks when digging level. The sheath is a little big, but we will put a piece of cardboard or something to take up the space.
