Originally apprenticed to a blacksmith shop, D.R. Barton eventually partnered in many tool-making companies, where his blacksmith experience was invaluable. His tools, which included draw knives, axes, carpenter tools, tinsmith tools and cooper tools, were made from forged steel. It is important to note that several of his companies (including Mack & Co. who bought out an original Barton company) use the D.R. Barton mark. Toolemera Press: Mfg. D. R.
