Here's a shot of a hammer Burton made for me to do wire inlay. I love it.
O.A.L. is 7 1/2 inches.
Head is 2 1/2 inches

Nice tools make you want to do nicer work. That is a nice hammer

Thanks for posting this up Moon. This was a Harley Davidson chain damascus billet that was welded up in a canister with 4600 powder. I drew the billet out and cut into 5 pieces and stacked and re-welded. I have a matching hammer head that I am making for myself. After seeing Joe Keeslers wire inlay demo at the Troy hammer in last year it got me excited to try and do some. Just have to handle mine. I traded Moon this hammer for a very nice beaver pelt that he trapped. -Burton

Thanks guys I really appreciate the compliments. This was a fun project, now Moon needs to do some wire inlay with it and see how it works out.
