Farrier & Blacksmith Forging Supplies
FORGING
Professional Forging Supplies for Farriers & Blacksmiths
Forging is at the heart of traditional horseshoeing and blacksmithing, and having the right equipment makes a difference whether you are shaping a keg shoe, building a shoe from bar stock, modifying a shoe for a specific horse, or working at the anvil every day. Well-Shod carries professional forging supplies for farriers, blacksmiths, horseshoeing students, competitors, and other metalworking professionals.
Our forging selection includes anvils, anvil stands, gas forges, bar stock, stall jacks, vises, tool steel, safety equipment, and forge fuel. Whether you are setting up a new farrier rig or upgrading equipment in an established shop, these categories cover many of the essentials used for forging and horseshoe modification.
Farrier & Blacksmith Anvils
A dependable anvil provides the working surface needed for shaping, drawing, clipping, fullering, punching, and modifying horseshoes. Browse our selection of farrier and blacksmith anvils from manufacturers including Cliff Carroll, Scott, Emerson, Future, and NC Tool.
Available anvils range from compact models suited to mobile farrier rigs to heavier shop anvils designed for regular forging work. Customers looking for a traditional full-size option can also view the 150 lb. Emerson Traditional Anvil.
A secure working height and stable base are just as important as the anvil itself. Our anvil stands and accessories include shop stands, portable stands, hold-down systems, tool holders, and other options for building an efficient forging station.
Gas Forges & Forge Equipment
A reliable forge provides the controlled heat needed to shape steel efficiently and consistently. Well-Shod carries farrier and blacksmith forges along with forge parts, reliners, stands, swing-outs, and other equipment used to maintain and organize a forging setup.
Our current forge selection includes models from Pro-Forge, NC Tool, Forgemaster, Swan, Blacksmith Forge, and Mighty Forge. Farriers looking for a compact professional gas forge can view options such as the Pro-Forge Dual Port Forge, along with additional single-burner, multi-burner, and competition-oriented forge designs.
For customers working with solid fuel, our coke and coal category provides forge fuel options for traditional forging applications.
Forging Bar Stock & Tool Steel
Farriers and blacksmiths who build shoes or other forged pieces from raw material can shop our forging bar stock in multiple profiles and dimensions. Choosing the right stock gives the smith the starting material needed to control shoe width, thickness, shape, and finished design.
Available options include flat bar stock, concave bar stock, and aluminum bar stock for different forging and horseshoe-making applications.
Well-Shod also carries tool steel for forging and metalworking for farriers and blacksmiths who make, repair, or modify their own forging tools.
Stall Jacks, Vises & Forging Support Equipment
Not every horseshoe adjustment needs to happen at a full-size shop anvil. Farrier stall jacks provide a portable working surface for shaping and adjusting shoes at the barn, competition, or shoeing location.
For secure workholding during shaping, cutting, filing, and other shop tasks, browse our selection of farrier and anvil vises. A properly positioned vise can provide additional control when working with shoes, bar stock, tools, and other materials.
Safety Equipment for the Forge
Forging creates heat, scale, sparks, and flying debris, making proper eye protection an essential part of the workspace. Well-Shod carries safety glasses for forging and farrier work, including options such as the Ice Wraparound Safety Glasses.
Protective equipment should be part of the setup whether you are working at a permanent forge station, operating from a mobile farrier rig, or practicing forging and horseshoe modification in a training environment.
How to Dress a New Anvil
Preparing a new anvil correctly can help create a more useful working surface and reduce the chance of damaging sharp edges during regular forging. The video below demonstrates how to dress the edges of a new anvil before putting it into everyday service.
Build or Upgrade Your Farrier Forging Setup
From the anvil and forge to the bar stock, vise, stall jack, and safety equipment around them, a well-planned forging setup helps farriers and blacksmiths work more efficiently and consistently. Well-Shod offers forging equipment and supplies for professionals building a new workspace, upgrading a mobile rig, replacing worn equipment, or expanding their forging capabilities.
