Planishing Hammer, Rounded Faces — 10 Inch Wood Handle for Large-Scale Metalwork & Repoussé

This rounded planishing hammer is designed for shaping and smoothing larger metal forms, ideal for holloware and larger jewellery pieces.

What it does

The substantial steel head, featuring dual polished faces with a shallow dome, efficiently smooths sheet metal and reduces finishing marks. Its weight is engineered to provide leverage for planishing broad surfaces, essential for creating smooth, flowing contours on bowls, trays, and larger fabricated items. The balanced hardwood handle ensures a comfortable and controlled swing, allowing for precise application of force.

How to use it

• Select the appropriate face for your form's curve.
• Strike the metal with controlled, overlapping blows.
• Keep striking faces clean to avoid transferring marks.

Who it's for

An indispensable tool for silversmiths, coppersmiths, and makers of larger holloware. This hammer is also suitable for metal shapers and restorers working on substantial panels. It complements forming blocks and larger stakes, replacing less efficient methods for achieving a smooth, finished surface.
