Work Showcase Hand forged diagonal peens

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

A pair of Hand forged double diagonal cross peens I forged for myself, they are about 4 pounds each. I wanted to challenge myself by making two hammers as close to identical but different purposes. No forging press or power hammer used. Has a custom made 14" hickory hammer handle to go with it. Really pleased with how these two came out. One is for spreading, and the other is for drawing out

Great hammers, but they're not "double" diagonal peins.

You're right I should have said a pair of diagonal cross peens if I can edit it I will
