Stonemason's hammer
Encyclopedia : S : ST : STO : Stonemason's hammer
A Stonemason's hammer has one flat traditional face and a short or long chisel-shaped blade. It can thus be used to chip off edges or small pieces of stone without using a separate chisel. The chisel blade can also be used to rapidly cut bricks or cinder blocks.
This type of hammer is also used by geologists when collecting rock samples.
