Hamlet Craft Tools are made in Sheffield, UK, a city with centuries of hand tool heritage. Now part of Henry Taylor Tools, Hamlet continues the tradition of forging tools from M2 high-speed steel, offering professional-level edge retention and precision at very competitive prices. The name “Hamlet” reflects their roots in the Abbeydale Industrial Hamlet, where original toolmakers operated.

What tool types and kits does Hamlet offer?
