Notes
  • Significance: The Warwood Tool Company makes hand tools using labor intensive forging operations, that transform raw steel into finished tools. These forging operations are the same as used when the company began production during the middle part of the 19th century. Warwood makes a variety of tools including garden tools, track tools, hammers, mauls, picks and other tools.
