Snarling Irons

A snarling iron reaches inside a closed form and raises metal from within, so a bowl, pot, or other hollow vessel can be formed or repaired in places a hammer cannot reach. Each iron has a polished working end and a 90-degree bent end for secure vise mounting.

To use, mount the bent end in a vise with the bend pointed downward so the polished working end faces up. Place your vessel over the area you wish to work on, then strike the snarling iron with a hammer or rod a few inches away from the vise. The polished working end responds by moving upward, striking the interior surface of the vessel with precision. Available in three head sizes to accommodate a range of working applications. Made in the USA.
