Time for some new trowels - Tile Advice

[WDavison]

Been using carbon steel ones with the wooden hahand that go rusty in the blink of an eye and the adhesive dries almost instantly if ever touches the handle.

Whats good to look at?

Im looking for stainless, 6 and 10mm and maybe a 20x10 round notched, to cover me for almost anything I'll want to do myself. Sound about right? Thinking an 8 is a bit redundant? Does anyone use a 12mm over a 10mm?

The genesis set with removable handle are really good. @Pro Tiler Tools has them

Just started using the Rubi trowels tried the 12 and 15mms notch up to now, good quality, don't bend and clean up easily... Will be replacing the whole set for the Rubis

Ive got the stainless steel rubi trowels 3,6,8,10,12 notch. Easy to clean off at end of the day.

Looks good, weary about how robust the handle joining would be though

I’m still using these, I like them!

Rubi trowels are excellent.

I have a few of the Genesis trowels too, I like the feel.

Been using it nearly every day for about 3 months. No issues as of yet

I'm due a few new trowels, sometimes it's not til you buy a new one that you realise how worn down the old ones are. I've always liked genesis handles but I may try Rubi

The kubala grout floats are excellent

I really like the rubi trowels .

I've been using the Rubi stainless trowels for years. Excellent quality

 

[WDavison]

Going with the Rubi stainless ones, handles look nice and comfortable.

For a 3,6,8,10 and TBSB the cheapest it seems I'm looking at is £72.04 inc delivery from TT. Didn't imagine spending so much really!
