Ball Peen Hammer
The New Ball Peen Hammer Collab by HouseMade + Gnome Hammer Forge
The latest hammer design release from Brian House & Ryan Brueck has landed.
Our forged Ball Peen Hammer is your go-to tool for precision and durability. Each one is handcrafted by Ryan from high-quality steel, and heat-treated for maximum strength, ensuring it withstands even the toughest jobs in your workshop. The perfectly balanced head design allows for smooth strikes, while the polished peen is ideal for shaping metal and creating clean, detailed work.
The hand-shaped hickory handle is 12" long, and flame-licked for color instead of using dyes. Whether you’re shaping, riveting, or forging, this ball peen hammer delivers the power and finesse you need to get the job done right.
This hammer is a perfect addition to any blacksmith's toolkit or a thoughtful gift for the metalworker in your life. Get the tool that feels like an extension of your hand—crafted to work as hard as you do.
"I love the ball peen. This one is absolutely fantastic to forge. Almost all of the drifting is done by hand. Going from square to round is super-fun and very technical.
I can't describe enough how much I love figuring out the process of making these efficiently and affordably; it's quickly becoming a passion project, just making these hammers."
- Ryan
More about the hammer
The 1.5-lb head is heat-treated 1045 tool steel. The faces are induction-forge-hardened and polished. Because of this heating method, the faces are hard and the body is soft -- so the body is more absorbent to the stress and shock of your hammer blows.
Every hammer is branded with Ryan's GHF logo and HouseMade's iconic skull/bolt brand mark, using hot stamps we designed & made in our Florida shop.
* collab hammers are not eligible for discounts/promos - this allows us to keep the price down and still support up-and-coming makers getting their businesses off the ground. Thank you for your support!
