Fretz HMR-S Silversmith and Forging Hammer Set of 8

The Fretz HMR-S Silversmith and Forging Hammer Set brings together the eight largest hammers in the Fretz line—curated specifically for silversmithing, raising, stretching, forging, planishing, embossing, and blocking. Each hammer pairs a hardened 420 stainless steel head (≈50 HRC) with a hand-finished Padauk rosewood handle engineered for balance, comfort, and precise control at the bench. Whether you're moving heavy gauge metal or refining a raised form, this set covers every stage of larger-format work.

Features

• Padauk rosewood handles: Hand-finished and shaped for grip and leverage, with each handle sized to match its head's weight for optimal balance.
• 420 stainless steel heads at ≈50 HRC: Cast, hardened, and mirror polished to move metal cleanly with minimal surface marks.
• Eight purpose-specific profiles: From heavy forging and sledge work to planishing, wide and narrow raising, embossing, and blocking—every major silversmithing task is covered.
• Largest hammers in the Fretz line: Sized and weighted for larger-format metalwork where control and mass both matter.
