Two faces cover a lot of bench forming: a 16 mm octagonal face for general shaping of soft metals, and a narrow 5 mm x 16 mm rectangular peen that lays down sharp, defined lines for repoussé and chasing. The locksmith pattern puts both on one balanced head.

At 120 g the head favours controlled, delicate strikes over brute force, with an 80 mm head length and a straight, smooth-finished wooden handle bringing the tool to 12" (305 mm) overall — comfortable and secure in the hand for a full session of texturing.

  • Features a dual-head design with one octagonal and one rectangular striking face.
  • The 16mm octagonal face is suited for general shaping and forming of soft metals.
  • A narrow 5mm x 16mm rectangular peen allows for creating sharp lines and detailed repousse work.
  • The 120g head weight provides a good balance for controlled, delicate strikes.
  • Fitted with a straight, smooth-finished wooden handle for a comfortable and secure grip.

Adam ★★★★★

I've been using the rectangular peen to lay down crisp lines on a copper bracelet, and it's far more precise than my old cross-peen. The handle feels well-balanced, making long repoussé sessions much less tiring.

Elizabeth ★★★★★

The octagonal face really shines for smoothing out silver sheet—it leaves a consistent texture without too much effort. That narrow rectangular peen is also perfect for crisping up fine details on my last repoussé piece.

Claire X. ★★★★★

I've been using the rectangular peen to chase fine details on a copper bracelet, and it really bites into the metal precisely. The handle also has a good grip for long sessions.
