A History of Excellence
Hazet Tools was founded in Remscheid, Germany in 1868 and by 1874 they had grown from a small forge run by the smith, Hermann Zerver, to a larger forge that was eventually run by 17 employees and four apprentices that produced train/trim for doors, ball bearings for lawnmowers and locks for night stands. Hazet has long since grown beyond even that in their 150 year history to become one of the most widely recognized tool manufacturers in the world, especially for automotive concerns.
