TROW & HOLDEN 1lb Round Hand Hammer with 7" Wood Handle HCHR1
The TROW & HOLDEN (USA) 1lb Round Hand Hammer HCHR1 is a traditional stone carving hammer designed for sculpting, detail carving and striking hand tools. Featuring a round, tapered striking surface and a comfortable 7 inch (18cm) contoured wood handle, this hammer provides controlled, balanced performance when working with smaller chisels and fine detail.
With a medium-hard annealed steel head rated at 28–32 Rc, the HCHR1 is softer than TROW & HOLDEN's harder striking hammers, making it particularly suited to delicate and detail-oriented stone carving applications.

Traditional Round Hand Hammer for Stone Carving
The TROW & HOLDEN Round Hand Hammer is based on the traditional style of hammer used by stone carvers and sculptors. Its round and tapered striking surface makes it easier to make solid contact with hand tools while moving around a sculpture or figure.
The rounded design also provides a comfortable fit in the hand, helping the user maintain control when performing detailed carving work.
Medium-Hard Steel for Detail Work
The HCHR1 features a medium-hard annealed steel head with a hardness of approximately 28–32 Rc. Compared with harder striking hammers, this medium hardness makes the HCHR1 particularly suitable for finer work involving smaller chisels.
It is an excellent choice for stone carvers who require a hammer that offers controlled striking performance during detailed sculpting and finishing.
Round and Tapered Striking Surface
The round, tapered striking face is designed to provide a consistent contact point when striking hand tools from different angles.
Its non-directional head and handle design allows the hammer to be comfortably used without needing to orient the head in a particular direction.
Comfortable 7" Wood Handle
The HCHR1 comes fitted with a 7 inch (18cm) contoured round wood handle designed for a comfortable grip during extended carving sessions.
The rounded handle complements the hammer's traditional design and provides good control for precise striking.
