An added suggestion, once the lead hammer becomes well deformed, is to wrap it in an old sock. The sock will keep pieces of lead from flying in your face or across a painted surface.

I've got a couple of lead shot filled dead blow hammers and a solid lead hammer. The solid lead one definitely works better than the deadblow.

The solid lead ones really look a mess after a while. I wonder how hard it would be to re cast the head of the hammer. I've got a decent blow torch, I wonder if it would have enough heat to melt the whole head. Anyone try this?

Cheers

They make molds you can buy to reheat and form your hammers to new.
