For equestrian ranges and country-themed work: this set punches horse head blanks in four graduated sizes — 23.69 × 18.03 mm down to 12.83 × 9.77 mm — from silver or copper sheet. One tool covers pendants and earrings, tags for leatherwork and insignia for metal art, with every blank identical to the one before.
The 76 × 76 mm die block weighs 1.2 kg — a solid, stable foundation for the hammer — and, like the punches, is hardened and tempered carbon tool steel. Anneal your metal, stay within 18 gauge (1.02 mm), and use a cutting lubricant to keep the shearing edges in good order.
Creating pendants and earrings for equestrian jewellery.
Producing decorative elements for metal art projects.
Making custom tags or insignia for leatherwork and other crafts.
Cuts four distinct horse head shapes from non-ferrous sheet metal.
Punch sizes (approx): 24x18mm, 19x15mm, 16x12mm, and 13x10mm.
Made from hardened and tempered carbon tool steel for clean, repeatable cuts.
Solid 76 x 76 mm (3 x 3 inch) steel block provides a stable cutting base.
Rated for soft metals up to 18 gauge (1.02 mm) like silver and copper.
Our steel letter, number, and design punches are heat-treated to strike non-ferrous metals: silver (sterling, fine), copper, brass, bronze, aluminium, gold. Striking hardened steel will damage the face. For pewter and very soft alloys, use light strikes.
What size impression do I need?
1–2 mm for ring shanks and small pieces (initials, hallmark-style); 3–4 mm for pendant backs and signed plaques; 5 mm+ for presentation pieces and stamped jewellery components. Bigger is not always better — a clean small mark reads better than a struggle with an oversized one.
What do I strike it with?
A 1–2 lb brass mallet on a polished steel bench block. Do not use a steel hammer — it will deform the punch over time. One firm strike beats two soft ones for a clean impression.
How do I keep the punch sharp?
Polished punches stay sharp for thousands of strikes if you are hitting cleanly on a flat block. If the face starts blurring impressions, polish lightly with 600-grit emery, then a buffing mop on a polishing motor. Replace before the face deforms further.
