Description

Tinsmith's Hammer with Dual-Face Steel Head and Hickory Handle

Overview

This is a purpose-built tinsmith's hammer designed for sheet metal shaping and finishing work. The double-ended head combines two distinct striking surfaces on a single head, eliminating the need to swap tools during the work cycle. Paired with a genuine hickory handle, this hammer delivers the balance and durability expected in professional metalworking shops. For comprehensive sheet metal work, consider complementing this with a specialized metal-shaping spoon or exploring alternative dual-face tinsmith options.

Key Features

  • Dual-face steel head: One end features a smooth, polished round face for planishing and finishing; the opposite end has a textured square face with raised pyramidal teeth for shaping and gripping sheet metal
  • Genuine hickory handle: Natural wood construction with excellent shock absorption and durability; stamped identification confirms material authenticity
  • Precision-textured striking surface: Regular grid pattern of pointed teeth provides controlled grip and controlled metal forming without slipping
  • Short, black-painted neck: Reinforced connection between head and handle for reliable service
  • Wooden wedge joint: Secure traditional assembly between head and handle
  • Balanced weight distribution: Designed for sustained metalworking without fatigue

Why This Matters for Your Shop

As a reseller, this hammer addresses a specific, professional need: tinsmithing and sheet metal work require specialized tools that general-purpose hammers cannot replicate. The dual-face design eliminates tool-switching downtime and appeals to experienced metalworkers who expect authentic, purpose-built equipment. Stock this for customers working in HVAC ducting, automotive restoration, decorative metalwork, and traditional craftsmanship—segments that demand proven, traditional tools over consumer alternatives.
