  • STL358: He Hunts For Tools, So You Don't Have To
    Jan 23 2026

    Joshua Clarke is the founder of Hyperkitten Tool Company, a business dedicated to sourcing and selling high-quality vintage hand tools to people who actually use them. He began collecting and restoring tools in 1999 after learning woodworking with hand tools in a small townhouse and turned that passion into a business in 2010 in Oxford, Connecticut. Over the years Joshua has shipped tools across the U.S. and internationally, carefully inspecting and restoring each item and offering unconditional guarantees on every sale. His work gained wider recognition after being featured by Christopher Schwarz and in The Anarchist's Tool Chest, helping the business grow and thrive while he balances it with family life and a full-time job.
