Picard Hammer - Blacksmiths' Hammer (0000811-1000),Black,Оne Расk

Bon marteau pour la forge belle qualité

Habe von Picard nichts anderes erwartet.👍

I have had the 1500g version for over 10 years now, I bought it at my first blacksmithing class. I have used it for countless hours so far no marking on the face but the paint has almost all peeled off it wasn't doing much anyway. I have worn the finish and most of the green paint off the handle just from use, it's a sturdy great work horse. I just recently purchased the 1000g because of the great price, other than it having a thinner handle it's the same hammer just slightly smaller. I have only used it a few times so far but like the 1500g it has great balance and I expect it to be as tough and well made as the larger version. hope this helps. Happy hammering!

Martillo de herrero estilo sueco de la marca Picard, esta hecho en Alemania con una calidad inmejorable. Producto muy recomendable.

To be honest, I was put off by a number of negative reviews, to the point where I almost didn't bother with Picard at all. Bad bevels! Mis-grinds! Loose handles! Finish issues! Were it not for the ability to return the hammer, I wouldn't have purchased it here. But am I happy I did. The quality is amazing. Perfect forging. Perfect grind and shaping. Incredibly well-secured handle. In addition to the handle stickers identifying the hammer, the head is stamped with the Picard logo and "Made in Germany." Nicely balanced. Like all forging hammers, this will need final dressing & polishing of the working faces. I will also strip the handle. The handle, by the way, is ASH, not hickory (as given in the description). Picard makes the hammer with both under slightly different stock numbers. While I knew the given number was for the ash handle hammer, you never know! (The hickory model is more expensive.) My first Swedish pattern hammer and I'm liking it a lot. Big thumbs up.
