Hand-Forged 'J' Shaped Tent Peg, 31 cm - Outlet

Hand-Forged 'J' Shaped Tent Peg, 31 cm

A Reliable Foundation for Your Historical Tent

This tent peg is crafted from high-quality mild steel, and its surface is treated with a black paint finish to enhance its resistance to corrosion. Thanks to the hand-forged process, each piece is an original, bearing the marks of honest craftsmanship. The sharp, forged tip makes it easier to drive the peg into harder or rocky ground, while the curved top end securely holds the guy ropes of your tent or shelter, even in strong winds.

Anchoring Tents in History

For centuries, tents and temporary shelters were an integral part of military campaigns, trade caravans, and pilgrimages. Although wooden pegs were often used, forged iron pegs were indispensable for larger and heavier tents, especially military ones. Their durability and strength ensured that a camp remained standing even in adverse weather. The simple hook design is timeless and functional, proven by centuries of use in the field. This peg is therefore not just a replica, but a fully functional tool made using time-honoured methods.

Care and Maintenance

To ensure your peg lasts as long as possible, we recommend cleaning off mud and dirt after each use and storing it in a dry place. Although the surface is protected by a coating, it is made of carbon steel, which can corrode over time. Occasionally wiping the surface with a thin layer of oil will significantly extend its life and maintain its excellent appearance. The peg is coated with a layer of oil from the factory to protect it during shipping – we recommend wiping it clean before first use.
