The Fretz Sharp Texturing Hammer features two sharp, tapered heads which produce clear, straight lines on metal.
The two faces, one tapering to a highly sharp point and the other tapering to a lesser sharp point, are particularly useful for creating sharp, parallel line textures on rings and bangles. They can also be used to create a shimmering effect on polished metal.
Fretz hammers feature beautiful and strong Padauk wood pistol grip handles, oil finished and tapering to a slender neck for flexibility. The head is cast from high grade 420 stainless steel and hardened to 50HRC for maximum durability.
