Cross Pein Hammer Metalsmith Blacksmith Metal Hand Tool

Good little hammer for the price. Good for small hobby work. Too light for any heavy metal work.

The head of this hammer shattered due to poor casting. I've seen tool like this before. These are the cheap cast Iron ones that were forged with large pockets of air in them under poor casting procedures. I hit an anvil with a piece of thin stock for working material and the head fell off. I went to the hardware store and got some wedges. I got another 3-4 strikes and the hammers mail surface end fell off. That whole section of hammer broke off. These are very poorly made items that don't have a scrap value or secondary purpose. The sell did refund immediately so I'm sure this wasn't the only one

It will serve.Would have given 4 stars but the handle was a little loose when I got it.Quick fix but annoying.Finish looked like a quick dip in some clear shellac.220 grit and some Tru-oil and I like it a lot better.The price is right.You get what you pay for.

Head was loose out of the box, hammer face has a large pit in it, handle feels like balsa wood. I wouldn't use this to hang a picture let alone any kind of metal working. Zero stars would be the appropriate rating. Do not waste your time or money on this junk.

The head of the hammer fell off upon first use, had to epoxy/glue it back on. But I did buy cheap! So I guess the old saying is true; you get what you pay for!

Works well...good price.

excellent for the planes I use, weight is perfect for the adjustment taps and cross pein removes the wedges perfectly.

This item was poorly made. Broke with the first tiny strike. What a waste of money.
