Konvixon 10PCS Concrete Trowel Set, Masonry Hand Tool Set Includes Large Flat Finishing and Pool Trowel, Wood Float, Concrete Edger and Groover, Margin Gauging, Wire Twister, Gloves & Carry Bag

Why this kit stood out in real-world use

I like kits that cover an entire workflow without forcing a dozen extra purchases. The Konvixon trowel set is exactly that: a single bag that covers prepping, finishing, edging, jointing, small masonry work, and even rebar tying. I put it to work on a small equipment pad and a short walkway extension, plus some block repair around a garden bed. Over a few weekends, it proved to be a capable, value-focused set with a couple of compromises worth noting.

What you get and how it’s configured

The set includes:
- 11.8" wood float
- 12" flat finishing trowel
- 14" pool trowel
- Gauging trowel
- Margin trowel
- Concrete edger
- Groover
- Wire twister
- Anti-slip gloves
- A compact carry bag (about 13.7" long)

The blades on the finishing and pool trowels are stainless steel. The gauging and margin trowels are high-carbon steel. All tools use textured rubber handles.

This selection covers the core needs of a small slab pour and finish, plus the ancillary tasks that typically require extra single purchases—edging, jointing, and mixing/buttering with margin and gauging trowels. The inclusion of a wire twister is a bonus if you’re tying rebar or mesh ties by hand.

Build quality and ergonomics

Stainless steel on the main finishing trowels is a smart choice. It resists rust, cleans easily, and has the right flex for finishing without chattering. Both the 12" flat and 14" pool trowels arrived flat with clean edges. I didn’t need to dress the edges before use, which is not always the case with budget-friendly tools. The wood float has a straightforward, slightly open grain that grips paste well and helped me bring up the cream evenly.

The gauging and margin trowels are high-carbon steel, which is more traditional for masonry tools and gives them the stiffness and strength needed for mixing mortar, scraping, and buttering without excessive flex. They’re not overly heavy, and they feel solid in the tang and ferrule—no wobble or rattles after mixing several batches of mortar.

Handles are a highlight. The rubber grips don’t feel plasticky or slick, even with wet cement. The shape is neutral—no aggressive palm swell—so it works across different hand sizes. After a few hours of troweling in warm weather, I appreciated that the handles didn’t hot-spot or force a grip adjustment.

On the slab: floating and finishing

For slab prep, the wood float is the workhorse. At just under 12 inches, it’s not oversized, but it strikes a good balance for DIY-scale pours or tight areas near forms. After screeding, the float brought up enough paste to close surface voids without leaving heavy ridges. I was able to bull float by hand for a small area, then follow with the wood float to knock down the aggregate comfortably.

The 12" stainless finishing trowel is compact by professional standards, but it’s highly controllable. On the walkway, it allowed me to work around forms and obstructions without tipping up and leaving lap marks. It has enough blade flex to achieve a smooth finish when the concrete is at the right stage, yet it’s not so whippy that it buckles under pressure when closing late. It’s a solid “first steel” for someone learning timing and pressure.

The 14" pool trowel is the sleeper hit of the kit. The rounded corners are forgiving for final passes; you won’t gouge your edges the way you can with a sharp-cornered finishing trowel. On the equipment pad, it let me burnish to a more refined finish without catching a corner. If you’re after a very tight steel-trowel finish on small slabs or curved edges, this blade earns its spot.

Edging and joints

The edger and groover are what make a kit like this complete. The edger’s profile gives a clean, consistent radius that resists spalling along the slab’s perimeter. The shank is stiff enough that you can press the nose down and ride the form with confidence. The groover tracks straight once you’ve established a line, and it cut crisp contraction joints on the pad. Timing matters here: work when the surface supports the tool without tearing, and you’ll get clean results with minimal touch-up.

Masonry and repair work

The gauging and margin trowels are appropriately stout for mixing small pails of mortar, scraping sides, and buttering block. The margin trowel is rigid enough to pry a bit when setting stone veneer or knocking out small ridges. For brick or block repair, you’ll want a jointer for fine-profile joints, but for utility work and tuck-back, these two are the tools you reach for most often anyway.

The wire twister and gloves

The wire twister is simple but handy. It saved time on tying up a small rebar grid for the walkway. If you tie steel daily, you’ll eventually want dedicated pliers, but for occasional work this tool is perfectly serviceable. The gloves are functional, with decent grip, but they’re basic. I used them for mixing and cleanup, then switched to my preferred pair for finishing.

Portability and storage

The bag is tough enough for jobsite abuse, but it’s undersized relative to the 14" pool trowel and the full spread of tools. Fitting everything is a game of Tetris, and it’s tight enough that I don’t bother; I keep the trowels on a rack and repurpose the bag for smaller items. If the bag were a few inches longer and wider, it would better match the kit’s ambitions. Consider a bucket organizer or a wider tool tote if you want easy in-and-out access.

Durability and maintenance

After washing down the tools at the end of each day, the stainless blades stayed clean and free of rust spotting. That’s a big advantage over carbon steel if you don’t have perfect cleanup habits. The high-carbon margin and gauging trowels will surface-oxidize if left wet, as expected, so dry them after rinsing. Rivets and welds stayed tight throughout testing with no loosening at the tangs.

Edge retention on the finishing tools remained solid. I didn’t notice any rolling or burrs after multiple passes, even when I leaned in late to close surface pores. If you do nick a corner, a few strokes with a fine file will bring it back.

Where it shines and where it falls short

What I liked:
- Comprehensive set that genuinely covers the workflow from prep to finish
- Stainless steel finishing tools that clean easily and resist rust
- Comfortable, grippy handles that don’t get slick when wet
- Pool trowel with rounded corners for forgiving final passes
- Useful extras (edger, groover, wire twister) that are often missing in value kits

What I’d change:
- The carry bag is too small for the entire set and awkward with the 14" trowel
- The gloves are basic; fine for utility tasks but not a reason to buy
- The 12" finishing trowel is nimble, but larger slabs benefit from a 14–16" option
- No magnesium float in the mix; the wood float works, but magnesium would glide better on bigger pours

Who it’s for

If you’re a homeowner, handyman, or a new contractor building out a starter kit, the Konvixon set makes sense. It has the right tools to execute small pours, pads, steps, and repair work without cobbling together a mismatched assortment. The finish quality is more than adequate for DIY projects and light professional use.

If you’re a full-time finisher or regularly place larger slabs, you’ll want to supplement with a larger finishing trowel, a magnesium float, and probably skip the bag in favor of a dedicated tote. High-volume crews will eventually outgrow the kit’s compact sizing and want brand-specific blades tuned to personal preference.

Recommendation

I recommend the Konvixon trowel set for DIYers and pros tackling small-scale concrete and masonry jobs who want a complete, capable kit at a fair price. The stainless finishing tools, thoughtful selection, and comfortable handles deliver reliable results. The bag is undersized and the gloves are forgettable, but the core tools are what matter—and they perform. Add a larger finishing trowel or a magnesium float as your projects grow, and this set remains a solid foundation for your concrete toolkit.
