A pointed trowel is a small hand tool commonly used in gardening and masonry. It features a pointed, triangular blade that allows for precise digging, planting, and shaping of soil or materials. The handle is typically made of wood or plastic, providing a comfortable grip for users. This tool is particularly useful for tasks such as transplanting seedlings, digging small holes, or applying mortar in bricklaying. Its design enables gardeners and masons to work in tight spaces and achieve detailed results, making it an essential item in both the gardening and construction toolkits.
