CAULKING IRONS

Our caulking irons are hand forged in small batches out of a high carbon, high chromium spring steel to suit the unique job of the tool. We base our design on the treasured C. Drew and Co tools. We offer two standard sizes of caulking irons - Boat and Ship. We are also more than happy to forge irons to any custom size or shape.
