Box Jaw Blacksmithing Tongs

Built for strength and precision, Box Jaw Tongs feature enclosed, boxed jaws that fully wrap around square and rectangular stock, providing a secure, stable grip on all sides. This enclosed design minimizes slipping and rocking, making them ideal for heavier forging work where control matters most. They're particularly useful for holding knifemaking blade steel stock, giving bladesmiths a firm, even grip during forging and shaping. Hand-forged for durability, these tongs are built to withstand repeated forge heat and heavy use at the anvil.
