Forging is a type of plastic working in metal processing. By applying pressure to metal with a hammer, etc., voids within the metal are eliminated, the crystal structure is refined, and the crystal orientation is aligned to increase strength while shaping it into the desired form. It has been used since ancient times as a manufacturing technique for blades, weapons, and hardware. Metal material is shaped by applying pressure using molds, etc. Because the fiber flow is continuous, the structure becomes dense, and it is less likely to form porosity (cavities) compared to casting, allowing for the creation of strong, coarse materials.

・A shorter version of the popular [Ultimate Hammer] is now available! Recommended for children or campers who want to keep their gear compact!
・The wooden handle of the short version is 70mm shorter than usual. The forged and head portions remain unchanged. The curved shape has been carefully designed to ensure a firm grip even with the shorter handle, maintaining the same ease of use as the standard version.
・Please note! A leather grip cannot be attached to the [Ultimate Hammer] Short.
・This forged hammer is made from round steel material heated to approximately 1100°C until it is red-hot, then crushed in one go with a force of about 1 ton. By applying strong pressure to the heated steel, a peg hammer with excellent strength is completed. The entire peg hammer is heat-treated, resulting in a robust body that is hard and difficult to bend.
・The hammer body is coated with cationic electrodeposition coating, which offers excellent rust prevention performance and can withstand over 1,000 hours of salt spray testing.
・The wooden handle is made of natural wood and features flowing curves.
・Manufactured in Tsubame-Sanjo, known for its excellent metalworking.
・Caution: Do not remove pegs using leverage. This may cause damage.
【Voltage Compatibility】
When using electrical appliances, please note that they are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V), so if you use them with a different voltage, it may cause a malfunction.
【Plug Type】
Our products use Japanese plug types (A or B type).
Please use a conversion adapter if necessary.
【Important Note on Transformers and Adapters】
A transformer adjusts voltage to match your device's requirements.
A conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage.
Using only a conversion adapter without a transformer may result in damage to the product.
【Liability】
We are not responsible for malfunctions or damages caused by improper use, such as operating the product without a transformer.
