Description

Special tool for traditional boatbuilding. This old-style reefing hook is used to manually remove oakum and sealant from the seams of calendered ship planks. Especially for deep and long plank seams, this joint scraper has proven its worth compared to home-made scrapers such as bent screwdrivers. This tool guarantees long, powerful work, especially for large hull and deck restorations.
We have these reefing hooks, as well as our caulking irons, made exclusively by hand in a small forge in Germany.
