Wooden handled Marshalltowns are as good as original pattern WHS trowels. The original WHS trowel is fantastic for "stoney" ground, the Marshalltown is ideal for "sandy" ground.
Austin, we must have been separated at birth. I thought that I was the only British archaeologist advocating the Marshalltown. I've still got my original one after about 15 years (not that it gets much use these days) and it's still in great condition despite lots of abuse.

I go for the Austin/Sith slogan:
"British engineering: not as good as foreign engineering"
The man from WHS is bound to go for that.
This should be stamped on all new Land Rovers/Jaguars. Not Minis though, they're quite good.
