A pritchels is a type of punch used in forging, particularly in making nail holes in horseshoes. The horseshoe is heated and a hole is punched through 90 percent of the steel with a forepunch or drift punch. Then the punched hole is lined up over the pritchels hole and the pritchel is driven into the hole, knocking out the remaining metal at the bottom of the punched hole.
