This forged French goldsmith’s hammer is an excellent all-around hammer with one flat face and one cross-peen face. Intended for fine detail work on softer metals, this hammer is ideal for light forging, shaping, riveting and contouring—it’s a versatile tool applicable to a wide range of work. The head is made of high-quality steel and is finely finished so as to reduce unwanted marks when used directly on the surface of metal. The hardwood handle is perfectly balanced.
