Estwing, founded in the 1920s in Rockford, Illinois, is renowned for being the first company to manufacture hammers with a head and handle forged from a single piece of solid steel. Over the decades, the company has become an icon in the tool industry, with innovations such as the leather handle introduced in the 1930s and the durable blue vinyl grips of the 1950s.

Notably, Estwing's geology pick gained fame when it was used by Neil Armstrong during training for the moon mission in the 1960s. With a commitment to quality, all of Estwing's all-steel hammers and axes are proudly made in the USA using American steel, ensuring they meet the highest standards of craftsmanship.
