• Welcome to Taylor Toolworks

        Providing high-quality specialty hand tools for woodworkers, machinists, and craftsmen of all kinds is more than a business for me -- it's a passion. I am a craftsman first, and what started as a way to fund my own workshop while sharing the tools I loved has grown into a business built on quality, precision, and craftsmanship.

           I've always held my work to the highest standards, whether I'm building fine cabinetry and furniture or choosing the tools that make those projects possible. I take pride in offering only the best -- tools I've personally tested in my own workshop before they ever reach yours. While some are an investment, I believe a quality tool pays for itself over time. Over the years, I've built relationships with trusted makers in the U.S. and around the world, all focused on delivering tools that are durable, reliable, and fairly priced. If a tool doesn't meet my standards, it doesn't make it into our shop -- plain and simple.

        After 15 years in business, we have reached an exciting new chapter- Taylor Toolworks has transitioned to be an employee-owned company. This transition allows me to focus on sourcing and testing the tools you need, while our talented team drives the business into the future. Together we're committed to helping you create with confidence using tools that inspire and endure.

          Sincerely, 

        Mike Taylor  & The Taylor Toolworks Team
