We used to carry this retensioning hammer years ago, and we're excited to bring it back in partnership with Sterling Tool Works.

Designed specifically for saw users, this dual-ended hammer makes it easy to fine-tune the tension of your folded backsaw without damaging the sawback. One end features a brass face for controlled, precise strikes for setting saw teeth, while the other has a nylon spud for safely working against the sawback when retensioning your saw.

This hammer features a 12" long wooden handle and a 4" wide head 

Whether you're maintaining a well-loved saw or learning the art of retensioning for the first time, this is a purpose-built tool made to give you the control you need.
