    Is it a farrier's hammer? One end for tapping in nails, the other for...well...whatever......

    When he first posted it, I sent a link to my cousin who is a farrier and actually makes hammers. He had no idea.

    One side is inserted into something and twisted to tighten it. Ifmthenitem is recalcitrant it is hammered with the other end. No idea what the item is though

    Is it a boiler maker's hammer with the spikes used to chip and scrape off scale in a boiler?

    The rods are not used for hammering or scraping.

    Is it time for give-away hints yet? martin and Kylek the Vulcan are warm enough to be irritated if they don't figure it out.

    Hammer for roofing? Installing sheet metal or copper, first, to make holes in the cladding, then hammer in the fasteners?
