The Footprint Brick Bolsters are fully drop-forged, making them ideal for heavy-duty use such as cutting bricks and other general building uses. The bolsters provide extra strength because the handle, blade and head are drop-forged as a whole rather than just forging the blade. The blade is specially hardened and tempered to provide a long-lasting edge. The bolsters have a domed head which helps to extend the usable life by preventing splintering and mushrooming from continued use. They are fitted with a high-quality hand guard for added safety. Manufactured to BS 3066.Made in the UK.
