These lovely polished stainless steel mallets are for dental work. Their beauty is matched only by the horror of their intended use. |
Dental Hammer |
This rubber hammer is for hitting people on the knee to see if they will kick you. |
This hammer is soft and light: its claim to fame is that it glows in the dark. It’s meant for hammering in tent stakes in the dark. |
A titanium handle with a steel head could be a good combination: this example is too expensive for me to want to find out. |
Meat tenderizing mallets have textured faces. |
Solid titanium at least won’t rust, but the hammer face still needs to be steel to make it hard enough. |
This wooden-handled titanium hammer truly makes no sense. Titanium may have some advantages as the material for a handle, but in the head it’s purely useless. |
Dog head hammers have most or all their head on one side. They are used in certain blacksmithing operations. |
This pointed hammer is for breaking tempered glass, for example if you’re trapped in a car. |
This one had me stumped until r/whatisthisthing told me to check if the hexagonal part is magnetic. It is, and that means it’s meant to hold a nail and let you start it by giving it one gentle hit. Then you switch to the square side to finish driving the nail. |
In Minecraft this iron pickaxe would be considered a “midgame” item, not the best, not the worst. This foam version is all the more useless because it’s real. |
TItanium hammers will cost you an arm & a leg, almost. |
Do you have a better example of this kind of tool? Let me know by leaving a comment, and include a picture of it if you can so everyone can see!
