Heritage & History
Warwood Tool began forging tools in 1854, supporting the Industrial Revolution through coal-mining equipment and American railroad construction. The company supplied the entrenching mattock used extensively by American soldiers in both World Wars and has equipped US forces in every conflict since the Civil War.
The company has occupied its current Wheeling, West Virginia factory since 1907 and has operated continuously from that single site for over a century. Its manufacturing facility was featured in the History Channel documentary The Men Who Built America.
