Right Handed and Left Handed Brick Trowels
Historically, some manufacturers offered brick trowels in right and left handed versions. A right handed trowel is for a right handed user. As the trowel is held, the right edge is curved more than the left edge. The left handed trowel is the reverse.
There are some companies in U.K. still offering a handed trowel. Spears & Jackson is one that comes to mind.
