Where We Come From

The Vaughan family has been committed to producing hand tools that proudly state "Made in the USA" for a century and a half.

We've been designing and manufacturing hammers for 150 years. Many of what are now accepted as basic hammer designs - from the distinctive curve of the claw to the set of the handle and the shape of the head - were introduced by Vaughan. All are the result of Vaughan's commitment to constant hammer improvement and extensive field testing.
