Marshalltown London
What’s the difference between a London-style and a Philadelphia-style trowel?
I’m looking to buy a Marshalltown trowel for an archaeology field class, professor said get a pointed Marshalltown 5-6″. Now I’m checking out the Marshalltown archaeology trowels on their website and they have London and Philadelphia styles. What are the differences? The Philadelphia style only seems to be more elongated than the London one. Is there more advantage of using one over the other? I tried looking online for an answer but found nothing.
The London offers a choice of handle being ‘wooden’ or ‘durasoft’, what the heck is durasoft?? =p
The Phili style also lets me choose whether I want the blade to be stiff or flexible.
So which style is better for what situations? We’ll be digging in San Diego, CA in a desert-y nature preserve a couples miles from the coast.
Just get one of each, and what you don’t use, Return!
