Hammer Copper/Hide 2lb (+-1100g)

This 2lb knock-off hammer has one copper face and one hide face for heavy blows where you don't want to mark the work. It is the style originally supplied in UK car toolkits for wire wheels and spinners.

The copper face gives a safe, high-impact blow. The hide face gives a firm, resilient strike that won't mark the surface. The head is malleable iron on a sturdy wood handle, which suits jobs that need heavy blows over a relatively small striking area.
