The quintessential everyday bench classic—engineered by the world-renowned tool masters at Durston, featuring a precision-hardened steel head with high-polish working surfaces paired with a stunning, ergonomic Padauk wood handle. Every independent jeweler needs a reliable, go-to multi-use hammer that handles daily shop tasks without marring materials or tools. While standard household hardware hammers introduce uneven weight distribution and coarse face textures that transfer ugly blemishes to your workpieces, the Durston® Superior Jobber Hammer delivers a pristine, master-crafted baseline floor. Its precision-ground flat face and traditional round ball peen allow you to smoothly switch between flattening wire, flattening metal clay sheets, general alignment, and decorative texturing with absolute professional accuracy.
Key Benefits
-
Precision Ground & Polished Multi-Faces: Crafted from deeply hardened tool-grade steel featuring exceptionally clean, high-polish striking surfaces. The immaculate finish ensures that every single hammer stroke transfers uniform kinetic power without transferring unwanted micro-scratches, scale blemishes, or raw factory textures to your delicate jewelry designs.
-
Ergonomic Premium Padauk Wood Handle: Features an exquisitely finished, premium Padauk wood handle engineered for professional-grade shock dampening. The lightweight, contoured timber body naturally absorbs high-frequency impact vibrations before they reach your wrist, enabling comfortable, fatigue-free bench work during long studio sessions.
-
The Perfect All-in-One Daily Driver: Outfitted with a dual-profile head configuration—a flat cylindrical face for general flat flattening and driving, and a round peen for riveting and texture—saving you from constantly switching tools during multi-step craft projects.
-
Flawless Balance & Kinetic Trajectory: Perfectly balanced along the center geometric line, allowing the tool's natural weight distribution to do the hard work for you. This prevents off-center deflections during downward swings, ensuring your strikes land flat and true every time.
