| This
trowel was developed for age-friendly tools brand
SKC in 2004. Sprout's inclusive design user research
methodology led to the new shape for a handle.
The splayed front part fits between the thumb
and first finger, making it easier to apply force
forwards. Trowels are also turned upside down
and used vertically.

A snap-fit is used to allow
disassembly for recycling, or the separate replacement
of trowel head or handle should one break.
