Brick Type
Handmade & Stock
Commonly have soft edges, always a frogged body (indent in the top of the brick).
Waterstruck
Often a solid brick, although a few products are made frogged. Commonly a lip is evident at the bottom of the face.
Wirecut
Precise edges are formed within the manufacturing process although a softer edge may be achieved by texturing or distressing. Holes or perforations through the brick are an easy way of identifying if the brick is wirecut; these can be in different patterns. Solid wirecuts are available on a limited number of products.
