What is a "pointing trowel"?
A pointing trowel is a small hand tool used in masonry for applying and shaping mortar between bricks, stones, or other masonry materials. It has a narrow, pointed blade that helps to reach into tight joints and accurately fill gaps with mortar. Pointing trowels are commonly used for finishing the joints of brickwork, stonework, or concrete, ensuring they are smooth and well-sealed. The tool is especially useful for detailed work in smaller areas, allowing for precision when creating a clean, professional finish on masonry projects.
