Metal Forming Hammer — Large 12 cm Non-Marring Nylon Plastic Head, Wedge Face, Repoussé
A large nylon hammer for forming sheet metal without leaving marks to polish out. The tapered wedge face concentrates force for repoussé and detail forming; the broad, flat cylindrical face planishes and shapes larger curves. Because the head is non-marring plastic, you can work directly on finished surfaces in precious or non-precious metal and keep them clean.
The 12 cm nylon head is fitted to a smooth, shaped hardwood handle that balances comfortably through longer forming sessions. Keep the faces free of embedded grit — a clean nylon face is what protects the work — and the hammer will keep delivering mark-free forming.
