No, these are small. A few ounces in weight.


Did you Google? If you do you will find that raw rawhide hammers do come in
small sizes, for example 2 oz. in weight 1" in diameter and 2 3/8" long.
While the most common known use is probably for striking tools to decorate
leather, the rawhide hammers can be used for any application large or small
in which you do not want to mar the surface.
