Forged Iron Cabinet Knobs and Drawer Pulls

Forged iron cabinet knobs and pulls are created by a labor and skill intensive process. Using century's old blacksmith forging techniques, the blacksmith repeats a process of heating iron to a point where it becomes malleable and then hammering or punching the iron until it takes the desired shape and appearance. Witnessing this, it becomes understandable why forged iron cabinet hardware is generally more expensive cast iron cabinet hardware. Cast iron hardware, which gets it shape by pouring molten iron into a mold or pattern, has a much uniform appearance among knobs and pulls created from the same casting process. The look of each piece of forged iron hardware, however, reflects each blacksmiths strike of a hammer or punch of a chisel.

The history of using forged iron to create cabinet hardware and other home hardware in United States spans from the nations colonial beginning to present day. Early American cabinet hardware and traditional Southwest and Mission style cabinet hardware were commonly created from forged iron. Today, the blacksmiths skills have been revived to recreate faithful reproductions of these classic styles as well as create new contemporary style iron cabinet knobs and drawer pulls.
