Fretz Jewellers Planishing Hammer

Description

This Fretz Jewellers Planishing Hammer is part of the Fretz Jewellers range of hammers that have been specifically designed for medium force striking when making jewellery or smaller metal items.

This Fretz Jewellers Hammer features one highly polished 19mm diameter shallow dome face and one highly polished 19mm diameter round flat face making it an ideal all purpose hammer for hardening and smoothing metal. It is perfect for raising metal to create small forms and subtle texturing on flat or curved pieces.

Delivering precision, whilst being built for toughness and durability, this Planishing Hammer is a scaled down version of the Fretz Silversmithing Large Planishing Hammer (). It provides a much lighter tool, perfect for use with lighter metal gauges.

The hammer head is made from 420 graded stainless steel and is secured onto a beautifully crafted handle made from oiled Padauk wood, which has been designed to flex during hammering for increased comfort and reduced strain.
