Estwing Tinner's Hammer T18: Precision, Balance, and Comfort for Metalwork

Estwing's Tinner's Hammer T18 is a purpose-built tool designed for precise control in metalworking. Weighing 18 oz, it supports measured, confident strikes with a smooth face and a cross peen tailored for shaping metal. The head and handle are forged in one piece and fully polished, delivering exceptional balance and durability that help you maintain steady control during extended sessions. Made in the USA from top-grade American tool steel, this hammer embodies Estwing's longstanding commitment to quality craftsmanship.

Two grip options accompany the tool: a bonded and molded Shock Reduction Grip that helps dampen vibration for comfortable use, or a hand-sanded leather grip that provides a traditional, tactile hold. Together, these features offer comfort and control for both meticulous metalwork and larger projects without compromising sensitivity or feel.
