Cant Hooks & Peaveys for Professional Log Handling
Cant hooks and peaveys are essential log-handling tools for loggers, sawmill operators, and woodlot owners. CSP Forestry carries professional-grade cant hooks with hardwood and fiberglass handles in a range of sizes suited to small firewood operations and large logging crews alike. A cant hook's pivoting hook grips logs securely for rolling and positioning, while a peavey's spike allows better control on steep ground and in water. Pair these tools with our skidding tongs and logging and sawmill supplies for a complete log-handling kit.
We carry cant hooks from Council Tool, Woodings-Verona, and other trusted manufacturers. Whether you're hand-loading a trailer, positioning logs at a portable mill, or handling timber in the woods, the right cant hook makes the work safer and more efficient. Browse alongside our hatchets, firefighting hand tools, and forestry supplies for all your timber handling needs.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a cant hook and a peavey?
A cant hook has a blunt end without a spike and is best for rolling logs on flat ground or at a sawmill. A peavey has a pointed spike at the bottom for better grip on uneven terrain and in water. Both are available in our cant hooks collection.
What size cant hook do I need?
Cant hook length typically ranges from 36" for small logs to 60" or more for large timber. Match the hook size to the log diameter you're working with. Browse our cant hooks and peaveys for options in multiple handle lengths and hook capacities.
Are fiberglass handles better than wood handles on cant hooks?
Fiberglass handles resist weathering and breaking better than wood in wet logging environments. Wood handles are traditional, easier to replace in the field, and preferred by some operators. We carry both styles in our cant hooks and logging supplies collection.
