Cross Pein Hammer

Our Cross Pein Hammer is the professional’s choice for fine woodworking and intricate assembly tasks. Unlike a standard claw hammer, which can be too heavy and bulky for small fixings, the Cross Pein is perfectly balanced for accuracy and control. The head is forged from high-quality carbon steel, hardened and tempered to ensure the striking surfaces remain durable and true. The tool features two distinct ends: The Flat Face: Precision-ground for driving small nails and pins once they are established. The Cross Pein (Tapered End): The thin, horizontal wedge allows you to start small pins or tacks while holding them between your fingers, without the risk of hitting your knuckles or damaging the surrounding timber. We offer this tool in two precision weights: 4oz (115g): The ultimate “tack hammer” for very fine work, upholstery, and delicate model making or trim. 8oz (225g): A versatile weight for general joinery, cabinet making, and light domestic repairs. Equipped with a high-quality hardwood handle (usually Ash or Hickory), this hammer provides a natural feel and excellent shock absorption, ensuring comfort during repetitive, detailed work. Dual-Purpose Head: Tapered pein for starting small fixings and a flat face for driving them home. Available in Two Precision Sizes: Choose the 4oz for delicate tasks or the 8oz for general joinery. Forged Steel Strength: Heat-treated head for a long-lasting, reliable striking surface. Shock-Absorbing Wood Handle: Traditional hardwood shaft offers a comfortable grip and reduces hand fatigue. Joinery Essential: A must-have tool for fitting beads, moldings, and small furniture components.
