Built to last so you won’t need frequent replacements for common repair jobs. Simple, practical design reduces hand fatigue and improves accuracy when positioning nails or shaping material. Suitable applications (specific use scenarios) 1. Shoe repair and construction: seating nails and tacks, flattening seams, and shaping leather on lasts. 2. Leathercraft and small workshops: assembling wallets, belts, and other leather goods where controlled, precise strikes are required. 3. Household repairs: light carpentry, picture-frame adjustments, and fastening where a compact hammer with a wooden handle is preferred. Compatibility and performance notes Compatible with common small nails, tacks, and leatherworking fasteners used in shoe making and leathercraft. The steel head resists deformation under normal use; the wooden handle offers dependable control and a traditional feel. Designed for tasks requiring precision rather than heavy demolition work.
