Product Details

The Fretz HMR-S set is curated for silversmithing, raising, stretching, forging, and other larger-format work—the biggest hammers in the Fretz line. Each hammer pairs a hardened 420 stainless steel head (≈50 HRC) with a hand-finished Padauk rosewood handle for balance, comfort, and precise control at the bench.

Why Fretz

  • Padauk rosewood handles: shaped for grip and leverage; sized to match each head’s weight.
  • 420 stainless heads, ≈50 HRC: cast, hardened, and highly polished to move metal cleanly.
  • Profiles for every task: from heavy forging to planishing, raising, embossing, and blocking.
