Dave Budd Handmade Tools
Dave single-handedly makes tools using a mixture of modern and traditional skills. All of the steel parts are hand forged and heat-treated in-house using a combination of selective hardening and tempering processes, that way he is able to get the best combination of toughness and edge retention that the steel can offer. He prefers to use locally sourced hardwoods for all his tool handles. Lovely work.
