About Urban Toolworks | Hand Tools for Modern Woodworkers

Urban Toolworks was created for woodworkers who care about the quiet details: a clean line, a sharp edge, a tool that feels right in the hand, and the satisfaction of making something useful with patience and care.

We believe woodworking does not have to begin in a giant shop with perfect conditions. It can start at a small bench, in a garage, a spare room, an apartment, or wherever a maker can find space to work. That belief shapes the tools we offer: practical, accurate, and thoughtfully chosen for people building furniture, learning hand tool skills, sharpening their craft, and making the most of the space they have.

Our focus is on precision hand tools, sharpening aids, marking and measuring tools, Japanese woodworking tools, and compact workbench solutions for modern woodworkers. Every item we carry is selected with real shop use in mind. If it helps make the work more accurate, more enjoyable, or more approachable, it belongs here.

Urban Toolworks is for beginners building confidence, experienced makers refining their process, and anyone who finds meaning in working with wood. We are proud to support a community built on patience, skill, curiosity, and the simple pleasure of making something by hand.

Thank you for being here, and for letting our tools become part of your work.
