These hammers from Fretz are a way to have a high quality, long lasting tool on your bench. The “maker” line of hammers all provide a specific job---choose the hammer that works best for you or opt for the entire set.

The Planishing Hammer has a slightly rounded working end for smoothing non-ferrous forged metal. The rounded end gives the classic planishing mark found on hand wrought metal. The other working end is flat which can refine the round planishing marks to near smoothness.

The Wide Raising Hammer is useful for raising small vessels or bowls from flat stock. It is also a forging hammer used to draw out wire or thin sheet metal.

The Narrow Raising Hammer is a crosspein used to sink metal into concave shapes and fit into curves where a round planishing hammer will not fit. The hammer also leaves a dramatic texture on flat, concave and convex metal and jewelry.

The Large Embossing Hammer textures metal with two ball shaped ends of different sizes. The textures can be varied by changing the force of the blow. It’s also used to emboss or sink shapes into cavities or a sand bag.

The Small Embossing Hammer has two round ends which make for interesting textures on smaller shapes where larger hammers would overwhelm the project.
