Brick Hammer

This hammer is a essential tool for bricklayers, masons, and anyone working with bricks or stone. The hardened steel head is designed to withstand repeated blows and offers excellent durability. One end of the head has a chisel-like blade, used for scoring and splitting bricks or dressing softer stone. The other end provides a flat striking face for driving nails, setting bricks in mortar, or other general hammering tasks. The wooden handle is designed for comfort and control, providing a secure grip and absorbing vibrations to reduce hand fatigue during extended use. The specific shape of the chisel end will determine if it is best described as a brick hammer (more pointed chisel) or a scutch hammer (wider, flatter chisel for softer stone).
