Old Dutch Trowel Size:Large A 14-tine model is availableI first spied, and admired, the long handled version of this Old Dutch Trowel being used by Monty Don on BBC Gardeners World. I liked the look of the longer and sturdier than usual trowel handle, the offset head, and the way he used it to dig into soil with a stabbing motion then pushing back and forth instead of a more typical digging scooping motion. My curiosity was piqued! The sharp sides and pointed end allow you to easily cut through the soil.
