Hand
Forged Vs. Machine Made
There is no comparison. In a day and age where
most tools are drop forged, stamped or cut out and then poorly tempered,
a majority
of people have never had the pleasure of using a well-made tool.
Hand
forging with hammers compresses the steel, introducing more carbon
into a smaller area. Carbon is what cuts, therefore you get a superior
edge.
After annealing, the tools are quenched then tempered to the proper
hardness. The tool is then fitted with a hardwood handle that
seats properly in
the socket. The shock ring on top helps prevent splitting.
My tools
all come shaving sharp and may be shipped back to me for re-sharpening
and repair work at any time for a nominal fee. If for any reason
you are dissatisfied with these tools, simply return within one year
for a full refund or exchange.
Please
remember our tools are hand forged, sizes are approximate and may
vary slightly.
