New Pieh Tool Ergonomic and Standard Hammers!
The Pieh Tool Ergonomic Hammers come in a variety of styles and sizes!
All of our Ergonomic Hammers are designed to move metal fast. Their compact head allows the hammer to be worked at extreme angles. Hammers are well balanced and made from 4142 tool steel and hardened to a Rockwell 52.
Each handle is ground and fit from straight grain aged hickory and then stained. The hammer handle is glued using a modern Polyurethane adhesive. This has the advantage of being able to flex during humidity and temperature changes which should give you many years of trouble free performance without the head loosening.
The Pieh Tool Standard Hammers are an evolution of our ergonomic hammers. The head of the hammer uses a standard size eye which concentrates the hammers weight around the center rather then the ends.
In addition this style of hammer is equally weighted on both ends to allow effortless switching from face to face or face to pein. Other ergonomic hammers use a large eye which moves the weight laterally and across center mass. By keeping the overall length of the hammer short we have developed a hammer that is extremely well balanced yet has the benefit of having a less bulky handle.
This hammers smaller eye allows the handle to retain the familiar double taper shape yet is significantly smaller. This allows a lot of comfort for those with smaller hands. This hammer is made from 4340 and is hand forged and painstakingly heat treated. All of our Pieh Tool hammers are proudly made in the U.S.A!
