This 4 oz. ball peen hammer has both faces polished to a mirror finish to leave bright, burnished planished hammer texture on your metal. The weight and size of this hammer makes the planish marks wider and deeper.

The shallow peen side of the hammer is slightly rounded to recede the corners, making it easier to texture your metal without hitting the corners of the hammer. The steel is polished to a mirror finish so that each hammer blow burnishes and brightens your jewelry. The ball side is similarly polished and makes deeper planish marks with crisp ridges.

Finishing a hammer with a mirror finish is a traditional skill for any metalsmith. But we don't always have the time to do it! And once the hammer has been shaped and polished the first time, it's easier to keep it polished with a little maintenance work. Give yourself a head start and save time with a pre-polished hammer.
