  • Patent number: 6393650
    Abstract: A hand trowel having a flat blade, a handle, an angled stem, and a bucket hook which has a length dimension of approximately one-and-one-half inches and extends beyond the attachment point of one end of the stem to the blade. Thus, the trowel can be stored in a substantially vertical, secure and fixed position on the lip of a bucket, preventing the handle from coming into contact with the contents of the bucket, or the contents being inadvertently spilled onto the work area. It also has a larger blade than is typically used for semi-fluid masonry products, to carry more product at a time to the working area, as well as act as a counterweight for the handle to keep the tool from falling out of bucket when it is moved. Thus, the present invention allows the operator to work more efficiently, and maintain a cleaner, less cluttered working area.
