Yes you can use a regular hammer for metal stamping with Pryor Metal Hand Stamps. While in some cases it’s advisable to use a Brass headed hammer or a hammer made form a softer metal to have a lower chance at damaging the stamp. Unlike some cheaper alternatives all our Metal Stamps are heat treated and Nikel Plated for Corrosion resistance and to make them hard wearing and designed to last. This means using a special hammer for your metal stamping is not required.

There are positives to both Stamping and Engraving. Stamping is very durable and Engraving or scribing metal is more customisable. Which is better, Stamping or Engraving/Scribing entirely depends on your application.

Pewter, Silver Alloy, Stirling Silver and Aluminium are all easy to stamp with Pryor Hand Held Stamps and should mark fairly consistently with 1 strike with a 1lb hammer. Brass, Copper and Nickel Silver are Harder to mark but not too difficult and Steel and Stainless steel will require a larger hammer or harder strike to mark cosnistently.
