Branding Irons

Colwood now offers the finest branding irons on the market. We can customize any of the designs for you or you can submit your unique artwork to us for a one-of-a-kind brand that will be a lasting tribute to your creativity and workmanship.

Our branding and marking tools make wonderful gifts for the hobbyist wood- or leather worker, for the barbecue aficionado, and for crafters working in wood, leather, plastic, soap, and wax, sand, and cement. These items even make great gifts for bosses, co-workers, and fellow club members. Our branding and marking tools make beautiful impressions or brands in various materials, and the brands themselves make beautiful and durable keepsakes.

We can customize one of our 'Handcrafted by' irons, create a fireplace poker with your family initials, or make a steak brander for the household that likes to entertain.
