Hickory is a natural shock absorber and has excellent strength for tool handles. The hickory tree has been used for hundreds of years for some of the most demanding uses including wagon wheel spokes and tool handles.

Flame Seasoned Handles, carved from fine second growth Tennessee Hickory, are tempered by a process known to the Indians before the white man came to America.

The Indians discovered that tempering hickory over live flame gave the wood a hard protective finish, a tightly sealed surface that resisted harmful weather. This process actually strengthened the fibers of hickory, the toughest wood known.

The principle of live flame tempering remains unchanged. But where the Indians went at it trial and error, at Tennessee Hickory® we carefully regulate the process with the most modern equipment. The results are the finest hickory handles in the medium price field.
