Best Pickaroon (Hookaroon)

The Pickaroon (also spelled picaroon) is sometimes also called a hookaroon, a pisaroon, a sappie, a Zapin, or a Sapine. It basically refers to a tool that has an average handle length between two and four feet with a metal hook. A pickaroon usually is straighter with a small bend near the tip that points in the direction of the handle. A hookaroon has more of an arched hook shape, rather than a bend near the tip of the metal portion. The handle traditionally was made of wood, but more modern tools have metal handles.

The pickaroon is used for snagging and turning over logs. It is believed to originate from the Alpine region.

At the PMH Wood division of Pioneer Mountain Homestead, we use it while cutting firewood, and it is one tool we would not be without. Our favorite is the Stihl Hookaroon.
