Blacksmith Tongs Wolf Jaw Blacksmithing Tool for Beginner & Professional Blacksmiths Bladesmiths & Craftsmen (15 in)

Good grip,hope they last as long as my grand fathers which i still use

So this is a good beginner tong. It works for flat stock and round stock. I haven't tried it for square stock, but I would imagine it works OK. It gets a little hot after a long amount of forging, you just need to wear a simple leather glove to handle the heat though. The only other thing is that my rivet got really stiff one day, and I had to take my hammer to it a bit to loosen it up again. Not a big deal bit minor things I noticed.

Girlfriend got this for me and I love them. The best part of them is you can easily one hand them. The space between the handles is ideal when gripping objects.

Stout, well built.

Good choices
