I got these tools years ago from a gentleman here on the forum

Hi all:
I am trying to find someone who makes these unique had-made BBQ tools. Mine are old and need to be replaced. I can't remember his name but possibly some of the old-timers on the forum will remember. Beautiful stuff. I even had him make some engraved tools for friends. Here is a couple of pic of my tools.

    I don't think he's been in the business for the last 7-8 years though.

    Lawn Ranger is correct. Thanks. Well, it would be great if he still makes a set of these once in a while.

    Like @WeberWhojust said Mike hasn't made any for years - in fact it's been more than 10 years!

    With a little TLC, your tools can be cleaned up and looking good again. Same for the wood handle on your Egg.
    Thank you,

    Darian is correct. Here's my 20 year old grid lifter cleaned up and refinished. 

    I even went so far as to disassemble mine so I could rotary wire brush the rust off and then repaint the metal with high heat paint.

    The reason I disassembled it was that the original purpose of the metal that Mike used was lawn edging stake with a baked on finish. To try to paint over it would not work nor last very long so that's why I decided to go clear down to bare metal and start over.
