That's a neat hammer,Agent_H,and mysterious in it's purpose to me.
However,i'd be most surprised,and leery of:


I know exactly Nothing of saw-doctoring,but All edges of this tool are entirely undressed.
Unless it's a brand-new tool meant to be dressed/radiused by user,i'd not strike any part of the body of a saw blade with it,it'd dent it irreparably.
Setting?Possibly...for some long,narrow teeth?

I'd say more likely it purports to some other trade.I was thinking maybe caulking...(about which i also know nothing...though in the far past as a boat-yard monkey i watched an old shipwright calk WWII-era vessels and other commercial craft of even older vintage,and i remember nothing like that among his tools of a Striking nature-only Struck...The working ends were,however,shaped very similarly...).

:D perhaps like my DayCon affliction, I see saw hammers in anything without a claw :confused::eek:o_O:)

Thank you My eyes combined with pictures on a phone...I really thought the hammer faces were softer.
:cool:

More pics! In this batch, a Heller bros. set of pincers, a mini sledge, and a blacksmithing tool. Separate from the auction lot, there's also a railroad tie cutoff my brother found and gifted to me.

If it is a hammer for saw making/repair, it probably does still needs some face dressing.
That and I don't know enough to hit any of my saws with a hammer :)

*I do have a nice little handle to mate with it though...

I don't watch many movies or TV so when I googled it it all came rushing back.:mad:

I probably watch too much TV and movies.
I remember last year when we reshingled the roof and couldn't get a signal when we put the dish back up, man that was 2 of the longest days of my life :D

Yes sir that’s half of a three and a half pound flint edge.Old red devil putty knife and its flexible.Like them old square grinders too.Thats the original 24 inch handle on that plumb rafter,looks like it came off about a half inch and he got some of the permabond off and put screws in it.Love that movie Big Ern was great.
