Trow and Holden Stone Cutting Tools

Trow & Holden Company has been manufacturing stone cutting tools for both the industrial and art markets for over 120 years.

Trow & Holden Company has been manufacturing fine stone working tools including chisels, hammers, splitting tools and pneumatic hammers since 1890. Most chisels come in a wide variety of blade widths and are available in carbide or steel tips. We manufacture over 35 different types of stone hammers, many available in both carbide and steel. We invented the first pneumatic carving hammer in 1890. S

ince then, sculptors all over the world have used our hammers to work on the National Cathedral and the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC, the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City and many other outstanding projects, large and small.

Winter's in full swing here in Vermont, and things are finally starting to slow down a bit. If you've got tools that could use a little bit of TLC, this is a great time to send them in for some maintenance. We'll regrind them to touch up the cutting edges and offer you tips to help keep them in shape throughout the season. You can give us a call first or just send your tools in - but make sure you include your contact information in the box so we know where they came from!

It's been quite a week here in Barre! The 2024 Stonework Symposium is in town, and we've had many world-class stone artists stop by the shop to share their work and geek out over our tools. The Symposium will close out tomorrow with the Lithic Olympics, coinciding with the annual Granite Festival at the Vermont Granite Museum. The weather looks perfect, and it should be a great day for celebrating the history of stone and the people who turn it into art. If you're in the area, please stop by the Vermont Granite Museum between 10 AM and 4 PM to check it out!

We often have customers or blacksmithing enthusiasts visit us just to see our historic forge shop, and we get it - it's our favorite part of the building, too! As a result of the recent flooding and our need to expand production capacity, we have decided to renovate and restore the forge shop into a new production space. We connected with New England Blacksmiths, who found homes for our trip hammers and brought in a kick-ass crew in to ensure that the all the equipment was moved carefully and safely. Thanks to their efforts, these historic hammers will help educate the next generation of blacksmiths while honoring the history of Trow & Holden well into the future.

As you may have heard, our home town has once again been hit with heavy rains and devastating flooding - exactly one year after the historic flood in July 2023 shut us down. We are incredibly fortunate that our building was not affected this time around, but many of the other businesses in our community were not as lucky. We are here to support our neighbors as best we can, and we appreciate all of our friends and customers who have checked in with us.

Happy 4th of July! We'll be answering phones until 2 PM today and then shutting down for the long holiday weekend. We'll be back at it on Monday, July 8th. We wish you all a safe and happy holiday!
