Craftool stamp modification

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I read a post by someone here that said " To improve the impression of most Craftool stamps grind the hammering end flat". After looking at mine all of them are domed shaped. Has anyone tried this?

Thanks

Not a tough question at all for me.  Any time I get a tool with a domed top I immediately grind it flat. I found out many years ago that a domed top is very susceptible to glancing mis-strikes and the results of that are usually not good.......so "Grind 'em if you got  'em.

You may have been the one that wrote the comment in post I asked about. I have some rusted tools I'll experiment with.
