I left my trowel outside and it did rust a bit. I contacted the manufacturer and got this reply: "Oiling the tools will help prevent rust. It is recommended that you only use boiled linseed oil on the tools. Just apply it liberally all over the tool, let it sit for about 15 minutes and then wipe off the excess with a dry cloth. You do not have to oil the tools after every use, just every so often." That advice works, I have found.

DeWit Forged Hand Trowel

Q: Which is better to buy, the small size or the standard size? Why?

That really is a personal preference whether you’d like the smaller or standard size trowel. When it comes to digging or breaking up the ground, I’m am heavy handed and therefore don’t want to bend or break a smaller trowel. I just love my DeWit trowel and did plenary of research before purchasing this one. If you’re digging in a soft, well tilled garden bed, I’m sure the small trowel would be just fine as you wouldn’t need the ‘power’ of the larger trowel. I hope I was able to help you make your decision. I do highly recommend this DeWit.

Q: Is this a full shank trowel with the shank running all the way through the handle? I'm tired of trowels breaking off at the handle.

I'm not really sure, but I don't think so. You don't see the shank running along the handle like you do on knives.

Q: Which is better to buy, the small size or the standard size? Why?

I have both and the standard size is my go to choice. It is used to loosen soil around weeds and digging ias part of a sprinkler repair. I use the smaller in the garden around small weeds. If I were to buy one, it would be the standard size.
