Preferred hammer for forging?
For forging razors and small knives, is a cross peen the preferred hammer? What weight is generally best for general work? Does anyone use the Hofi hammer or has anyone tried Uri Hofi's technique for hammering (I haven't seen his technique I've only seem teaser segments on Youtube for some DVDs detailing his hammering technique which is apparently different ergonomically that a traditional method of swinging a hammer)?
Thanks!

Would this be any use in the big hammer stakes?
Might get the job done quicker:w
