Matthias Fenner

Matthias Fenner is a one-man workshop based in rural Lower Saxony, Germany, producing small-batch precision layout tools for discerning woodworkers. Beginning as a professional woodturner in 2016, Matthias has since mastered metalworking, grinding and heat treatment - bringing a machinist's precision and a craftsman's eye for surface finish to every piece.

These are not budget tools, nor are they meant to be. Each marking knife, scribing awl or layout instrument is shaped with flowing lines and superb fit that makes reaching for them a genuine pleasure. For woodworkers who believe the tools they use should inspire their best work, Matthias Fenner delivers exactly that.
