About Traditional Woodworker

Heritage. Quality. Performance. Value. That’s what we stand for at Traditional Woodworker. A family-owned company with a mission to provide you with the highest quality hand tools made by journeymen who still take pride in the traditions of their toolmaking craft. We search the globe for hand tools made in this spirit and offer a broad range at competitive prices.

Traditional Woodworker was founded by the Edstrom family after years of finding it difficult to find the range of quality traditional-style hand tools we preferred for our own projects. The Edstroms have been working wood for many generations. Our founding partner, Erik Edstrom, trained as a finishing carpenter in the Swedish apprentice system and made carpentry his vocation for years. Erik made his way to sunny Texas permanently over a decade ago and based the company in the Dallas area.

Traditional Woodworker stocks broad lines of top-quality, traditional tools. You will find a variety of hand planes, carving tools, sharpening stones, chisels and gouges, hand saws, measuring & marking tools and timber & log tools. From well known toolmakers to independent craftsmen who have been quietly pursuing their craft for decades, we think you’ll be delighted by the performance of our products. Given all the time we put into ensuring quality at Traditional Woodworker, we stand behind our product lines fully. Experience the Traditional Woodworker difference for yourself.
