Category: Jewellery Making Tools

A large nylon hammer for forming sheet metal without leaving marks to polish out. The tapered wedge face concentrates force for repoussé and detail forming; the broad, flat cylindrical face planishes and shapes larger curves. Because the head is non-marring plastic, you can work directly on finished surfaces in precious or non-precious metal and keep them clean.

The 12 cm nylon head is fitted to a smooth, shaped hardwood handle that balances comfortably through longer forming sessions. Keep the faces free of embedded grit — a clean nylon face is what protects the work — and the hammer will keep delivering mark-free forming.

  • Features a 12 cm non-marring nylon head with both a wedge and a flat cylindrical face.
  • The tapered wedge face concentrates force for detailed repoussé and forming work.
  • A broad, flat cylindrical face allows for general planishing and shaping of larger areas.
  • Fitted with a smooth, shaped hardwood handle for a balanced and comfortable grip.
  • The nylon construction prevents scratches and marks when working on finished metal surfaces.

Who it's for

A core tool for UK bench jewellers and silversmiths who work with sheet metal. Also suited for coppersmiths, tinsmiths, and artisans requiring controlled, mark-free metal forming and shaping.

Nicholas ★★★★★

The wedge face on this hammer lets me really dig into repoussé work without worrying about transfer marks. The nylon head is substantial enough to move metal but soft enough that I’m not spending extra time polishing.

Leo O. ★★★★★

The wedge face is perfect for getting into tight repoussé details without slipping, and the nylon head truly leaves no marks to polish out. I finished a copper bracelet in half the time I used to spend with my old steel hammer.

Emma E. ★★★★★

I’ve been using the broad cylindrical face to planish earrings, and it smooths the metal without leaving any tool marks to buff out. The nylon head is surprisingly sturdy, and the 12 cm size gives me excellent control for detail work.
