    Default Trip to Brighton

    My big brother moved from Denmark to Brighton 6 months ago and it was now time to visit him. To my big surprise he had bought me two razors Next day and the hunt began. I found quite a lot razors but many of them were either in awful shaped or pretty expensive.. I did found some neat things tho. I'm a bricklayer and a sucker for old tools. I was lucky to find a old trowel. It's a lot diffrent than the danish tool for laying bricks. Will be fun to try it out at work. Name:  DSC_0437.jpg

    From the middle to right is the norwegian trowel, I was told and the other one is the danish. I uses the norwegian because I find the danish way too wide. As you can see the height of the handles are different as well.

    Very nice finds. You will need to visit your brother more often. Your found trowel is the only kind I have used for laying block anyway.
