Montoya hammer (made to order) Cymbalsmithing Hammer
The story behind this hammer is, Musician and cymbalsmith Juan Montoya sent me some pictures of marks in a cymbal he liked. I thought they bore a striking (no pun intended) resemblance to those left by the cross pein of my forging hammer. After rolling around some ideas we came up with this double straight peen with a narrow ½” dia compound radius and a ¾” compound radius. This is the first cymbalsmithing hammer I'm offering that doesn’t have a round face(s).
Head length 5”
Handle length 10”
Weight 2 lb. (head)
