Sized between the smaller Fretz Precisionsmith hammers and the larger Fretz Silversmithing hammers, the Jewelers series is the go-to choice for a wide range of metalsmithing tasks. The HMR-2 is purpose-built for raising work, with dual flat faces designed to compress metal against a stake without stretching it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRaising is the technique of angling sheet metal off a stake to create an air gap, allowing compression rather than stretch. The HMR-2's wide raising faces make it ideal for raising sheet metal into a bowl against a wooden or metal T-stake, forming concave shapes inside cylinders, and planishing subtle concave surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e420 stainless steel head\u003c\/strong\u003e cast and hardened to 50Rc for lasting durability and performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHighly polished faces\u003c\/strong\u003e — 7.5 x 19.5mm and 11 x 19.5mm flat raising faces deliver clean, controlled strikes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAfrican Padauk (Rosewood) handle\u003c\/strong\u003e — smooth, perfectly balanced, with a special finish for exceptional feel in hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandle weight is proportioned to head weight for optimal balance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for raising sheet metal into bowls, forming concave shapes in cylinders, and planishing subtle concave profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandle color may range from dark brown to lighter tones depending on sourcing of recycled Asian Padauk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHMR-2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHead Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWide Raising\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFace Shape\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFace Sizes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.5 x 19.5mm \u0026amp; 11 x 19.5mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHead Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e72mm (2-7\/8\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHead Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.9 oz.
