Jim Blurton Snake Eye Tongs

The Jim Blurton Snake Eye tong is based on the original Jim Blurton fire tong, retaining the same quality and durability as the original, but now featuring a new distinctive snake design.

The snake eye fire tongs have been designed to steadily hold the shoe or steel whilst forging and shaping, hot or cold. The tongs are forged from one piece of steel and ensures the tongs are easy to maintain even with rigorous everyday use. Manufactured with curved reigns and a 16″ long handle to keep the users hand away from the hot steel.

They are available in the following sizes: 
1/4”(6mm)
5/16”(8mm)
3/8”(10mm)

Available as part of the Jim Blurton Professional Farrier Tool range, the snake eye tong design was developed and tested at Jim’s forge in Mid Wales
