The PrecisionSmith hammers are smaller than the Fretz Mini hammer line, featuring shorter heads (65mm vs. 70mm on average), reduced working surfaces, and thinner handles — all designed to give you greater control where it matters most.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eFretz HMR-403 PrecisionSmith Narrow Raising Hammer\u003c\/strong\u003e carries the hallmark quality of the full Fretz line: a highly polished, properly hardened stainless steel head paired with a beautifully finished rosewood handle. The balance is exceptional, and the rosewood handle finish is refined to the point of being genuinely comfortable in hand during extended use sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Raising:\u003c\/strong\u003e Raising is the compression of metal down to the stake without stretching it. The key technique is to angle the metal off the stake, creating an air gap that allows for compression. The Narrow Raising Hammer can be used to raise sheet metal into a bowl shape against a wooden stake or a metal T-stake, to raise cylinders into a concave form, and to planish subtle concave shapes with precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSave even more when you purchase Fretz hammers in sets.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart of the Fretz PrecisionSmith super-small hammer line, designed for fine, detailed jewelry work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmaller profile than the Fretz Mini line — shorter head length, reduced working surfaces, and thinner handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardened stainless steel head polished to a high-quality mirror finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual flat faces sized for narrow raising work: 13.5 × 4mm and 13.5 × 5mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeautifully finished rosewood handle with exceptional balance and comfortable feel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for raising sheet metal into bowls, forming concave shapes in cylinders, and planishing subtle concave surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHead Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNarrow 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\u003e13.5 × 4mm \u0026amp; 13.5 × 5mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHead Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e65mm (2‑1\/2\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHead Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.1 oz.
