Made in Remscheid, Germany
For over 150 years, we've remained committed to local manufacturing in Remscheid, Germany. By sourcing materials close to home and producing our tools where our story began, we maintain exceptional quality while reducing transportation and supporting traditional craftsmanship.
Nothing is wasted.
Quality materials deserve a second chance. Rather than discarding imperfect pieces, we carefully rework and repurpose them within our production process whenever possible. It's a more demanding approach, but one that reflects our commitment to craftsmanship, sustainability, and making the most of every piece of steel and wood.
“No other manufacturing process gives steel comparable strength, toughness and durability.”
Forging strengthens the steel at its core, creating tools that are tougher, longer-lasting, and built for precision. That's why every Two Cherries chisel is designed to perform today and for generations to come.
