Fretz Large Hammer HMR-106-Blocking

The Fretz HMR-106 Large Blocking Hammer is built for raising, stretching, and heavy forming on larger workpieces. It combines a hardened stainless steel head with a finely finished rosewood handle for balanced, controlled blows and a clean surface transfer.

Key Features

• Largest Fretz blocking hammer: sized for silversmithing and substantial forming work.
• Hardened stainless head: highly polished faces move metal efficiently with minimal marking.
• Shaped rosewood handle: smooth finish and comfortable leverage for long sessions.
• Balanced strike: delivers power and control for planishing after blocking.

Specifications

Applications
