Fretz Chasing Riveting Hammer

Fretz Chasing Riveting Hammer

“Essential for jewellery marking, this hammer combines two faces, which are uses in different operations. The chasing face is used to strike tools only, not jewellery. Use it for centre punches, chasing punches, etc. The surface it not maintained and will show marks and dings, which is fine because this tool is not used on jewellery metals themselves. The riveting face is a small cross pein. It is ideal for upsetting, or spreading the ends of rivets when cold-joining metals. This hammer needs no maintenance. It is required for classes at the Revere Academy of Jewellery Arts in San Francisco, California.” ALAN REVERE
