Description

Lighter than common cut nails, but used for similar applications, these solid-steel nails were originally designed for building wood boxes and crates. They can also be used for face-nailing floors, framing and roughing in. Rooted in age-old tradition, our wide array of period restoration square nails are cut much the same way they were 150 years ago. The result? Outstanding durability and holding power, designed to last a lifetime. Once you've experienced the quality and performance of our vintage reproductions, they'll surely become your preferred choice for a variety of applications. Made in the USA.

Too many questions.

First time using cut nails - They worked!

Comments:

They worked - exactly what I needed. One thing to note: The conventional wisdom with cut nails is to nail them in with the wedge following the direction of the grain. If they are nailed in across the grain, they will split the wood along its length. With that being said, these nails have a ""twist"" to them along the length of the shaft. This causes a corkscrewing to occur, which can cause splitting. So check your nails before using: if they are ""twisted"", then you have to start them slightly turned to the grain direction, anticipating that they will go in and screw a bit in one direction, ending up being oriented with the grain. Happy hammering!

Good nails, fine period look and function.

Great Nails

Comments:

I used the nails to replace finish screws and they worked great and looked much better.

Great Product for historic reproduction, awesome!!

Comments:

The cut nails were used on reproductions of 18th century packing crates and the wood was deal. The nails were cinched to join the pieces of wood, and these nails cinched extremely well, none breaking. I highly recommend these nails and will definitely buy again.

I always wanted square nails to use.

Comments:

60 years ago, I used to find old square nails in 1870's vintage townsites out here in the southwest, and picked up all the straight ones with the idea of using them to build replicas or restore artifacts. Now I have a source of identical, but new production nails, and better than the old iron nails.

I would purchase these nails again!

Comments:

I used this product to do a period piece nail art craft. The nails worked great. Some nails were defects, but that is typically expected.

Loved the look!

I ordered these for my husband when he was describing what he wanted for building my farmhouse style dining room table. It was exactly it! (Yay me!)
