A rather large ?warington style hammer imaged here https://www.flickr.com/photos/183694571@N.../52078829634/in/dateposted-public/ At 8" overall length,its way biggger than any warrington hammer I'm familiar with, but the paneend does have a taper. But could it be a bodyman's hammer?? Wadda ya think? Eric |

Eric, That's an auto body hammer. Mine came in a tote tray with a bunch of "dolly" backup blocks, so the ID is pretty definite. Spots of body putty or paint would clinch it... John Ruth In Metuchen NJ, where we've had a variety of weather today. |

Hi Eric--- I'm betting it's more of a tinker's hammer than a body-man's hammer, and of a design that pre-dates cars. I have a couple similar from my grandfather's box that were well-worn when he died in the late 1950s. Good hammer, though; when you need it, not much else will do. best; gam in OlyWA/USA On Monday, May 16, 2022, 02:42:10 PM PDT, cowtown_eric |

Yup..that looks a lot like the business end of a Fairmount body hammer that I have tucked away with some lead working stuff. Tim Wifey saw a scraggly fox catch a dove in the yard this morning. |
