Craftsman Studio is a San Diego, California family owned business in operation since 1997.

Ten years ago we started building Craftsman Studio in the likeness of an old neighborhood hardware store - on the web - where you can find quality woodworking tools and obtain knowledgeable advice.
Three principles guide our business - absolute integrity in all dealings, providing superior customer service and good value for your money.

Our philosophy hasn't changed. - We look forward to each day of chatting with customers, evaluating new tools, participating in woodworking events and working on our own projects as time permits. ...We haven't figured out how to work in the tin ceilings with fans, wood floors and oak pigeon hole cases yet but we're working on it.

Our goal is to provide excellent value with every purchase.

Craftsman Studio provides :

• Fast shipping from stock
• Knowledgeable sales staff
• No-Questions-Asked Return Policy
• Prompt customer service response and resolution
• Quality products designed to provide years of service
• We protect the privacy of your personal information and do not share it

In our San Diego, CA retail store you will find a great selection of woodworking hand tools from quality makers. Complete selection of Lie-Nielsen Toolworks products - L.S. Starrett, Norton, HNT Gordon, and more. Sjoberg & Lie-Nielsen workbenches on display. Authorized Shapton waterstone distributor. Knowledgeable service and demonstration tools available.

As woodworkers ourselves, we select high quality tools which are well designed because we understand the importance of properly made tools in producing fine work. Before offering a product for sale, we carefully examine and test it in our shop to ensure it not only looks good but performs well.

We can assist you with knowledgeable answers to your questions regarding tool selection. Please send us an e-mail or call at 888-500-9093 us to discuss your needs.

We sincerely appreciate your suggestions and criticisms which often lead to improvements. ...so please continue to tell us about errors on our website, what you like and where you think we can improve.
