Our Wood Fire Pizza Oven Tools & Knives
If you’ve jumped ahead to our Tool Shop
and felt a bit overwhelmed by the number of tools on offer, don’t be! The variety isn’t there to make you buy more (though it wouldn’t upset us), but to make sure you get exactly what suits your oven shape, oven size, cooking habits and budget.
To make things simpler, we’ve grouped our tools into four sections based on what they actually do:
These tools are the instruments you use to manage your coals and wood – keeping the fire under control and the oven at the right temperature.
Don't like the taste of ash and grit? You need something to clean your oven with so it’s ready for the next pizza night.
We have three types of knives available for your inner MasterChef – great for pizzas, bread and all the prep that goes around your oven.
If your budget is tight, this order is also the best way to choose.
- Only buying one tool? Start with a Food Handling Tool.
- Two tools? Add a Fire Handling Tool.
- Three tools? Include a Cleaning Tool.
- After that, Knives round things out nicely.
Our site is a little different to most. There’s plenty of info here, and we do ask you a few questions along the way. It’s not because we’re trying to be difficult — it’s because every tool is custom made. We want to fit the tool to you, not the other way around. Taking a moment to read through things means you’ll end up with the right tool for your oven and how you like to cook.
Need a Hand With the Cooking Side?
Once you’ve sorted your tools, we can help with the “what next?” too. We’ve put together How to Make Pizza Dough and Pizza Toppings, 'Cherry Tomato" Sauce Recipe, No Knead Bread Dough Method, and Intro Advanced Bread Making Course - including Part 1 (Main Bread Ingredients), Part 2 (Creating a Recipe), and Part 3 (Bread-Making Processes) - plus a Roast and Salad or two for when you want to try something different in your oven.
You’ll also find plenty of helpful tips, FAQs and how-to guides on firing up your oven, managing heat, baking bread, and even getting better pizza out of a regular electric or gas oven. There’s also a simple Visual Engraving Tryout Tool to help you picture your custom engraving. It’s all there to make life easier, whether you’re a newbie or an old hand. Have a browse around the site — there’s lots to explore and learn.

On TV & In the Wild
George Calombaris Says:
OH and whilst we’re on the subject of customer recommendations, we got a lovely video from George Calombaris a couple of years ago (holding one of our pizza peels):
George Calombaris is one of Australia's top chefs and is equally recognised as one of the original judges on MasterChef Australia, the highest rating show on OZ TV.
The oven behind him in this clip is a beautiful The Fire Brick Co creation and he is right: it is a work of art!
Channel 9 MasterChef Sightings
Speaking of MasterChef Australia, our wood fired pizza oven tools have actually been featured in 3 series.
In Season 10 - Episode 33 (first aired June 20th, 2018) our pizza oven tools appeared in an Outdoor Cooking Challenge. It was an interesting episode and possibly could have been titled HOW NOT TO COOK WITH FIRE! That said, if you’re a newbie and struggling a bit with your temps etc, it does show you that everyone starts their fire cooking journey somewhere!
Our tools also featured in Season 8 - Episode 24 (first aired June 1st, 2016). In this team challenge you can see our oven tools in the background of George Calombaris’s beautiful new (back then) Hellenic Republic Restaurant in Kew.
You can also see the stunning oven The Fire Brick Co built for him.
OH and way back in Season 4 we were very excited (our first major press splash!) when we saw Filippo Silvestro (a customer of ours from up in North Queensland) as a Top 50 contestant. In the background story they did on him, he was cooking dinner for his family, wielding his peel AND mezzaluna and making awesome pizzas.
Other Exciting Reality TV Sightings
You can see our tools on The Block 2020 (season 16, episode 48, Backyard Reveal) featured in Luke and Jasmin's Pizza Party Pit (between 52.22 and 53.06).

And on the 2021 season of Married At First Sight, Johnny and Kerry have themselves a very romantic pizza dinner at the stunning Kalinya Estate in Bargo NSW. Johnny cooks using our tools!
Did you see our tools on the ABC TV series Pine Gap?
We had no idea the tools were on there, but we got lots of calls after episode 2 first aired because the tools were featured prominently in the head American spy’s futuristic house and a whole pile of eagle eyed customers noticed! The outdoor area of this house is truly amazing. We have more stills from the episode up in our Photos of Wood Fired Pizza Ovens (album no 5) if you’d like to see and the series is also available on Netflix now.
On SBS
One of the episodes of SBS's show Who Do You Think You Are is about Paul Mercurio star of Strictly Ballroom and host of Mercurio's Menu and apart from being a really interesting story, there he is, in his backyard, with an Alfresco oven from Sydney Heaters and a full set of our tools! Apparently he made pizzas for everyone the day they were filming. There’s some more nice stills taken on the day up in our Customer Photo Gallery.
