Heavy New Basic Cymbal Smithing Hammer
Heavy New Basic Cymbal Smithing Hammer
This hammer is a slight variation on my most popular hammer (the "New Basic"). It has the same weight, same reach, same handle length. The only difference is the shallower radius of the face, and its more pronounced flair. This allows the smith to cover more bronze with each blow. The edges of the face are ground and polished to a tighter radius than the center to minimize the risk of "digging in" with an edge.
~35mm diameter face
~1217g hung
Head length ~14.5cm
Handle length ~25.5cm

NOTE: These items are handmade and natural variations will occur.
