I hand forge two single face style hammers which some call a cutler, dog ear or   dog head  hammer. The eye is placed towards   one end. This creates a dropping effect when   swung  making this type of hammer easy on   the arm. Each hammer weighs approximately   2 pounds. 

 I offer 2 sizes:
Japanese style - 32mm square x 110mm long
Stubby style - 40mm square x 80mm long

Both are made from YK30 steel which is a Japanese steel similar to O1. 

 For handles I use guava tree wood which is         commonly used for tool handles in Asia. I             shape the handles to be ergonomic based on       if  you  swing a hammer right or left handed. I   feel my hammers are top quality - hand forging improves the form and function...
