About Us

Whitlox Wood-Fired Forges started production in 2013. The forge was designed by Chuck Whitlock for his then teen aged daughter, Cori, so she could blacksmith at home without having to source coal. Since then, James Martin, a member of the Whitlock family, began producing Whitlox forges and eventually took over the brand in 2026.

It is our hope that the products we provide will encourage your quest for self-reliance. 

Cori's been using the forge ever since and you can find her forged creations in her Etsy Store. Hear the story here:

 

Our family works together on manufacturing the Whitlox Forge products and providing them to you. We see our blacksmith products as an integral part of a homestead lifestyle of self-reliance, skill building and love of learning. 

We stand by everything we sell 100%: if it doesn't work great for you, please contact us so we can help you out!
