Some forming jobs must leave no trace: truing a polished band, shaping repoussé work that is already finished, dapping soft precious metal. This hammer moves the metal while the solid Teflon head keeps tool marks off the surface — and unlike rubber, it releases cleanly rather than gripping and distorting the work.

The head pairs a 3.81 cm flat face for planishing with a cross peen for linear shaping, and the smooth, turned wooden handle keeps the swing comfortable and balanced through repeated light blows.

  • Dual-face head combines a flat face for planishing and a cross-peen for linear shaping.
  • Solid Teflon head transfers striking force without marking or scratching soft, precious metals.
  • Smooth, turned wooden handle provides a comfortable and balanced grip during use.
  • The flat face has a diameter of 3.81 cm for working on a range of component sizes.
  • Teflon surface releases cleanly from the workpiece, unlike rubber which can grip and distort.

Who it's for

Common questions at the bench

What weight hammer should I start with?
For most bench work, 4–8 oz is the sweet spot. Lighter hammers (2–4 oz) suit fine detail and chasing punches; 6–8 oz suits forging and texture work. Avoid anything over 12 oz unless you specifically need a raising hammer.
Can I use this on annealed silver and copper?
Yes — these hammers are designed for non-ferrous metals: silver (sterling, fine, britannia), copper, brass, bronze, and aluminium. The polished face will not transfer marks to clean annealed stock when used correctly. For mild steel work, use a separate hammer.
How should I care for it?
Wipe the face down after each session to prevent any tarnish from work residue marking your next piece. If the head develops nicks, polish them out with fine-grit emery and a buffing mop — a marked hammer face transfers marks to your work.
What is in the box?
One hammer with the head and handle fitted, ready for the bench. Polished faces are protected with a thin oil film — wipe before first use.
