Who We Are

Founded in 2008, Weddle Tool Company was created by a small group of fire and rescue professionals who saw a gap between traditional forcible entry methods and the realities of modern emergency response. The goal was simple: build a practical, reliable tool that allowed controlled entry when speed mattered — without unnecessary damage.
​
From that vision came the W Tool. Designed for fire, rescue, and law enforcement professionals, it offers a precise, situational approach to entry that complements existing tools rather than replacing them.
​
Based in West Virginia, Weddle Tool Company remains a small business committed to quality and craftsmanship. Every tool is still handmade by founder David Weddle, with a focus on durability, simplicity, and real-world performance.
