The Peavey Pulp Hook is a hand hook that puts a handle on the end of a log, for lifting and dragging firewood, pulpwood, timber frame scraps, stumps and other heavy wood. It comes in two patterns, the Classic and the Canadian.
Both have a steel hook on an 11 in hardwood handle, and both are light, tough and handy. The Classic is Peavey's Favorite 606 pattern. The Canadian Pattern is painted bright red and is a little smaller, with a slightly tighter curve to the hook. Each comes factory ground to a very sharp point, so handle it with care.
Peavey Manufacturing dates to the spring of 1857, when Joseph Peavey, a blacksmith in Stillwater, Maine, watched river drivers struggling with logs on the Stillwater branch of the Penobscot and made the first peavey in his shop. The company still makes tools in Eddington, Maine, and is owned and run by Rodney Jr. and Randy Buswell.
