33" Hand-Forged Fireplace Tongs & Log Grabber
Details
Wicks Forge was founded by Nicholas Wicks Moreau, who dates the forge’s beginnings to 2013 after an online launch in October 2012. Its current business address is Salem, New York, and its team also has roots in Maine. Moreau began with inherited family tools after a blacksmithing apprenticeship in Scotland. The company makes useful everyday metalwork, values accessible craftsmanship and honors the blacksmith’s tradition of community service.
33" Hand-Forged Fireplace Tongs & Log Grabber
Place and reposition firewood with a full-size hand-forged log grabber. The three-piece design creates a substantial pair of fireplace tongs for a hearth or fire pit. Its approximately 33-inch length offers more reach than the maker’s 22-inch mini grabber.
Choose the tool around your firebox depth, log size and available storage space. The supplier describes this model as approximately 33 inches; an inconsistent metric equivalent has been omitted. A matching poker is a separate item unless you purchase the dedicated two-tool set.

Materials
Materials and finish
Hand-forged steel with a brushed and natural-wax finish.
Hand-forging can create small differences in surface texture, shape and dimensions. Measurements are approximate rather than precision-machined tolerances. Keep the protective surface maintained so the metal stays ready for its intended use.
Care
Care and use
Let the tool cool before cleaning or storing it. Wipe it dry and keep it indoors or in a sheltered, dry place between uses. Steel can develop surface rust when exposed to moisture. Remove light rust with a suitable scouring pad or brush, then apply a thin protective oil layer to cool, cleaned metal. Keep any oil or refinishing product away from open flames and follow its instructions.
Use the tool only where you can work comfortably without reaching into flames. A fire poker or grabber does not replace the stove or fireplace maker’s operating instructions. Store cooled tools where they cannot be knocked over. For additional guidance, review U.S. Fire Administration fireplace and wood-stove guidance.
