Introducing our new collection of Fretz products featuring beautiful hammers, unique forming stakes, and versatile bench anvils.

Fretz Hammers, Stakes, and Anvils

Fretz products are unlike any tool you have ever seen or held before. Only when you’re working with a Fretz product can you fully appreciate the quality, strength and versatility. These products help you form, shape and design sensational jewelry.

Fretz hammers are the best quality jeweler’s hammers and each one is specifically designed to make your designing easier. Each hammer features a head made of 420 stainless steel, and beautiful handles made from Padauk wood. These hammers are light weight, but strong, and very versatile. Cool Tools carries a variety of Fretz hammers, like your standard planishing, embossing and raising hammers for doming, smoothing and raising metals. We also carry a collection of specialty hammers including the Fretz Insert Hammer, Fretz Jeweler’s Sledge Hammer, and several Fretz Texturing Hammers. A quality jeweler’s hammer can help your projects come out just the way you want. Having a specialty hammer, perfect for the job at hand, can make your designing much easier.

Fretz miniature metalsmithing forming stakes are also made of hardened 420 stainless steel and feature highly polished surfaces. The miniature stakes are used to form bracelets, pendants, bezels or to form hollow back rings. They can be used to perform other metalsmithing tasks, but on a much smaller scale. These stakes are to be used with the Fretz H-1 stake holder (HOL-112). Easily mount the holder on your bench and swap out stakes quickly and easily.

Fretz bench anvils are perfect for bench jewelers. You can form or texture flat or curved jewelry and metal on the anvil. The wooden base dampens the noise and the rubber feet keep the anvil from slipping. These stunning anvils are also highly polished and made of 420 stainless steel and Padauk wood.

With a Fretz hammer, stake, or anvil, form not only meets function, it meets beauty as well.
