I’m having trouble locating a specific Drawer/Door Pull. So I’m listing this post in all the forums I visit regularly and I’m hoping one of you will be able to point me in the right direction.
After putting it off years I remodeling our kitchen including building the cabinets from scratch. In part, I was motivated by a design I saw in a magazine. The October 2005 issue of Workbench Magazine had a feature spread on a Contemporary Craftsman kitchen remodel. My wife and I really liked the design and how the cabinet pulls, the editors selected, worked with the design.
The brushed nickel handles, in the article had about a number of rows (I’d say 15) of debossed or indented squares, 3 squares to a row.
In the Materials & Hardware section of the article the part was listed as “Smedbo SME-04356 Drawer/Door Pulls”. But when I ‘Google’ that part number, the item that is displayed, has indented circles not squares. The Buyer’s Guide in the article listed as MyKnobs.com, I contacted them but they no longer carry the part.
I saw handles at Home Depot in the winter of 06. When I went back to purchase them a few months ago HD longer had them nor could they tell me anything about them.
Of course I’m looked at the other ‘big box stores’ here and have tried on-line but so far I’m luckless.
That’s my sad story. I can’t believe that all of those handles have been used up and they’re gone. There must be 30 sitting on some shelf in some store, waiting for a good home.
Thanks for your help! (I think I posted a picture with this, but who knows?)

I feel your frustration, Berry! Have had similar problems in the past.
Looked at the article in the mag. and agree - you guys have selected a very nice design! I didn't bother to search the net as you already have, but here are a couple of substitutes that you may find suitable.
First there's 02A36.16 @ $7.30 ea from Lee Valley. I'm afraid these might have round holes like the ones you don't care for. (Weathered Nickel finish)
Next; There's several out of "Woodworkers Hardware Catalog"
- A04428 R and A04428 RBZ and A04428 WI from Woodworker's Hardware. These are "Amerock" brand. I like the square raised metal near the ends of these pulls. Several finishes to choose from - rustic brass, rustic bronze, wrought iron. You can tell the finish from the last initials of the part number.
These cost from $4.26 to $4.76 each, in a box of 25.
BWP2925 SN (satin nickel) However these may have round indents rather than square. You'll have to ask. These cost $5.48 each when you buy a box of 10. They are shaped about like the ones in the article, but are 128 mm long. Not my favorite, but may be yours.
BWM677 15B with a backplate of BWM679 15B The color here is old English Pewter. The pulls are fully dimpled as are the backplates. However the backplates have 4 squares cut out near each end. The cut outs match the Craftsman look quite nicely. (at least in my opinion - your wife's may be different) (It's easy for me to have this favorite - it's not my money) They are pricey at $10.19 each in a box of 10 for the pulls and $13.34 each for a box of 5 for the backplates. If it's any consolation, these also come in antique satin bronze finish.
There is also another pull that gives a look that will go with the craftsman style. BWP7526 AP AND BPW7526 WDA There are definite 4 square indents near the ends of these pulls. These are a little different as they have 2 1/2" centers while the pulls are about 4 1/2 long.
They have another that has 3 inch centers with the same four square indents. These are BWP7525 AP AND BWP7525 WDA Definitely give these a look! antique pewter fro $4.10 each in a box of 25 and $3.55 each in a box of 25 for windover antique.
