24oz. Brass Deadblow Hammer - the perfect hammer for your workbench.

This is a specialty 24-ounce hammer filled with metal shot to make it a "deadblow" style, which reduces bounce-back when hammering. The brass face is used to avoid marring surfaces while hammering, and the softer plastic backside can also be used for an even gentler touch. With a careful hand these hammers can be used for fretting, and this is also a popular style for gunsmiths and metalworking. We find that this is a great hammer to have on the workbench for building cigar box guitars and other woodworking - it has enough heft for more forceful use, but is still small and gentle enough for more delicate work. 

These hammers are branded with the C. B. Gitty name, and we are offering these at a special low price while supplies last.
