I am trying to find a one-handed tool for moving small logs and firewood. I saw a picture of a tong-like grapple on here before but I can't find the post. It looked like it would be great for firewood. Does anyone know who sells these things? Thanks!
 
@my passion sounds like you're looking for a logging tongs or skidding tongs. it's a tool designed to grab the end of a log and give you a solid handle for carrying or dragging it.
Companies like LogOX and Peavey make excellent ones. They are a game changer for moving firewood from a pile to your splitter or just to get it out of the woods

I'm sure what you saw is the LogOX. They're a super popular brand and for good reason. Their LogOX Hauler is more than just tongs, it's a 3 in 1 tool that can lift, drag, and even roll logs.
The handle is designed to keep your back straight, which is a lifesaver when you're moving a bunch of firewood. They're a bit more expensive, but the quality and ergonomics are worth it if you process a lot of wood

If you're talking about log tongs or timber tongs, try checking out Northern Tool or Bailey's. They usually have a good selection for those kinds of tools.
 
I think the tool you're looking for is called one-handed log tongs or firewood tongs. These scissor-like grapples are designed for a single person to easily grab and move small logs. You can find these tools for sale from brands like Fiskars and Bahco, as well as on various online retail sites and in hardware stores.
