Classic Hand Tools by Garrett Hack is a beautifully crafted tribute to the elegance, utility, and enduring legacy of traditional woodworking tools.

This richly illustrated volume is a deep dive into the evolution, craftsmanship, and continued relevance of traditional woodworking tools. Hack shares insights on how to choose, restore, and use these tools effectively, blending practical advice with reverence for their design and tactile satisfaction.
With the eye of a craftsman and the heart of a historian, Hack explores the form and function of hand tools—from chisels and planes to saws, scrapers, and marking gauges—revealing how they shaped the art of woodworking long before the rise of machines.
Whether you're a seasoned woodworker, a collector, or simply fascinated by the quiet precision of handwork, Classic Hand Tools is a visual and intellectual feast that reconnects readers with the soul of the craft.
