Collectible Hammers

Thor Hammer Replicas and Mjolnir Display Pieces

Mjolnir, the hammer of the thunder god Thor in Norse mythology, is the centerpiece of this collection. The pieces here are display and collector items rather than tools, and they come in several sizes and styles:

• Film-style replica: a Thor hammer replica modeled on the version seen in Thor: The Dark World and Avengers: Age of Ultron.
• Game-inspired replica: a souvenir Mjolnir based on the design from the God of War Ragnarök video game.
• Viking Mjolnir: the handmade Viking Mjolnir hammer with an etched Valknut design and a leather-wrapped handle, popular for display, gifting, cosplay and reenactment.
• Desk paperweights: compact Mjolnir paperweights in solid brass or stainless steel, sized for a desk or bookshelf.

If you want the look of Thor's hammer on display, the full-size replicas make the bigger statement, while the paperweights are an easy gift for a fan's office.

Norse Valknut Hammers

Two hand forged carbon steel hammers carry the Valknut, the symbol of three interlocking triangles found on Viking Age carvings and often linked with Odin. They're made as Norse mythology display pieces rather than working tools, and pair naturally with other Viking-inspired items such as our Viking bracelets.

Damascus Steel Hammers

The two Damascus steel hammers bring the layered, wavy pattern usually seen on knife blades to a hammer head. Because the pattern comes from forge-welding and folding different steels, no two heads look exactly alike. Both come with a cover to protect the finish, and they sit between tool and collectible: suitable for light crafting and shaping, but most often bought to display or give as a gift to someone who already appreciates Damascus knives.

Hand Forged Working Hammers

For makers who want to use their hammer, two pieces are built for the workshop:

Blacksmith Hammer

The hand forged blacksmith hammer has a forged steel head on a wooden handle and is meant for forging, shaping, riveting, peening and general shop work.

D2 Steel Hammer

The custom D2 steel hammer pairs a D2 tool steel head with a micarta handle. D2 is a high-carbon, high-chromium tool steel known for wear resistance, and micarta stays grippy and stable in a busy shop. It's a working tool that also looks good on a bench or wall rack.

Display Piece or Working Tool?

The easiest way to choose is to decide whether the hammer will strike anything. The Mjolnir replicas, paperweights and Valknut hammers are for display, collecting and gifting. The blacksmith and D2 hammers are made to be used. The Damascus hammers bridge the two. If you're building out a workshop, see our forged tools and chisel sets.

Caring for Steel and Brass Hammers

Carbon, D2 and Damascus steel can rust if left damp, so wipe the head dry after handling and apply a thin coat of oil before storage. Brass will darken over time; a soft cloth and brass polish restore its shine, or leave it to age naturally. Keep leather-wrapped handles away from heat and moisture.
