WUTALeather Hammer Double Head Cobblers Hammer Mirror Polishing Carbon Steel Leather Mallet for Professional Leather Craft Tool

Excellent hammer. Solid weight and construction. Good balance from handle to the hammer head. The steel seems strong and good weight. I recommend.

Nice tool for leather crafting!

As advertised.One of the best value for money, decent balance, good size on the head.

This is a great hammer. Does the job well. The handle could be slightly better refined but that is more of a cosmetic consideration

Nice hammer to tap down stitching and adhere leather layers together. Smooth non blemished face.

So many people have recently taken up leather working since Covid. Many are new to the craft and have not mastered all the little things that take your work from OK to "wow look at this". Hand stitching is one of the best ways to make your work shine, with different thread sizes and colors you can add that extra "awesome" without having to change anything else. Finishing up your threadwork by tapping the lace down into the stitching groove gives a smoother feel and keeps the threads from over abrasion. This hammer has a very slight convex on one of the heads and the other is dead flat. These options work well when using different leathers, on thinner more firm leather you may need the flat head, so you don't create dimples. On thicker, softer leather like Bison, I prefer the convex head. Is this an Al Stoleman (the Godfather of leatherwork) hammer, absolutely not, does it do what I need it to, most definitely. It is priced just right for anyone to try, if you don't like, put it in the garage for someone else to use.

Right weight and manageable

Great hammer for setting edges when gluing up leather projects, feels good in the hand, great price
