Why Wood Skewers Still Lead the Market
Wood skewers remain a go-to tool across culinary, commercial, and creative industries. High-output food processing lines, packaged DIY craft kits, and more rely on skewers to provide a solution that’s functional, cost-effective, and highly customizable.
Arnold Wood Turning manufactures and ships wood skewers in bulk quantities using durable, food-grade hardwoods like birch. We also offer customization in size, point style, and secondary operations, which allows you to align your product line with your customer’s expectations.
Our Manufacturing Process
Our wood skewers start as high-quality lumber, shaped into dowels with uniform density and surface smoothness. From there, we cut, taper, and point them with exacting tolerances. Most food-grade skewers are produced from birch due to its strength and clean aesthetic. Bamboo is another common option that is used, but as a grass with less rigidity, it’s typically used for low-impact applications.
Our U.S.-based family team ensures consistency, clean cuts, and accurate bundling with production capacity suited for tens of thousands of units at a time.

Point Style Options: Sharp or Blunt
We offer both sharp and blunt tip profiles to match the demands of your application. Sharp points are preferred in the food industry for effortless piercing of meats, fruits, and desserts. Blunt points are ideal for crafts, educational kits, or safety-sensitive packaging.
