MODECO MN-30-120 locksmith hammer with wooden handle, weighing 2 kg, is a hand tool designed for metalworking, locksmith tasks and heavier striking operations. The solid steel head provides concentrated impact force for bending, shaping, driving punches and chisels, while the wooden handle offers a firm grip and shock-absorbing properties to improve control during repeated blows. The tool is built for workshop and on-site use where robust, reliable striking performance is required.
Advantages
The hammer combines a durable forged head with a traditional wooden handle that balances weight and comfort. Its 2 kg head mass delivers effective impact energy for metal forming and demolition tasks without excessive rebound. The wooden handle reduces vibration transfer to the user’s hand and allows for secure handling when performing precision strikes or heavier blows. The straightforward construction facilitates maintenance and replacement of the handle if necessary.

How to use
Hold the wooden handle near the end to maximise leverage and control, keeping a steady grip while aligning the striking face with the target area. Use measured swings for shaping and precision punching, and firmer controlled blows for heavier assembly or demolition tasks. Inspect the head-to-handle connection before use to ensure it is secure, and replace a damaged handle or loose head before continuing work. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety glasses and gloves, when performing striking operations.
Usage recommendations
Store the hammer in a dry place to protect the wooden handle from moisture and swelling. Regularly check the striking face for chips or excessive wear and maintain a secure fit between head and handle. For tasks requiring different striking profiles or softer impact, consider using suitable face protectors or secondary hammers to avoid damaging the tool or workpiece.
