Basic Cymbal Smith's Cymbalsmithing Hammer

Basic Cymbal Smith's Cymbalsmithing Hammer

$175.00

This weight-forward dog-head style hammer was designed specifically for forging bronze cymbal blanks but it is great for all manner of sheet metal forming applications- I developed it with the help of several notable cymbalsmiths. The forward cant of the head and the short handle make it ideal for working at the anvil while seated. The length of the head and the high crown of the face also make it great for sinking the bells of cymbals or other hollow forms. I keep one handy in my shop for dishing ladles and spoons.

Approximate measurements:

face 1&1/8" High crown 

head length 6"

handle length 9"

weight 2lbs
