Forming & Texturing Hammer — 4 oz Ball Peen Chasing, Wooden Handle, Repoussé Tool

Four ounces is a considered weight for chasing: enough mass to move non-ferrous sheet, light enough that your wrist — not your shoulder — steers the blow through a long repoussé session. The polished flat face handles general forming; the polished ball peen puts in dimpled texture. Our note on choosing a jeweller's hammer covers where a light chasing pattern like this fits.

Between the two working faces the steel head carries a black-coated body, and the straight wooden handle is finished smooth, taking some of the vibration out of each strike. Keep the faces bright — any mark on a hammer prints itself into the work.

• The 4 oz head provides sufficient mass to move non-ferrous metals effectively.
• Features one polished, flat face for general forming and one polished ball peen for texturing.
• The steel head has a black-coated body between the polished faces.
• A straight, smooth-finished wooden handle offers a traditional grip and helps absorb vibration.

Who it's for

A practical, everyday hammer for UK bench jewellers, silversmiths, and coppersmiths. Also well-suited for craftspeople and hobbyists doing detailed metal forming and texturing work.
