I just scored a like new heller rounding hammer on ebay the other day. This is the cleanest one I have picked up yet, the only problem is that someone has heated it up to the point that it slagged up around the eye and the cheeks and it is super soft. How should I go about rehardening and tempering this old beauty?
Thanks,
Travis Koons

Hi Brian!
Thanks for the awesome wedding gift you sent, we love it! I am sorry we didn't get a thank you card to you, but we didn't have an address.
I tried to harden that hammer with oil but it is still soft. Shayne told me that he and Jay hardened their hammers in a hot brine solution, is that what you mean by water hardening or do you mean just straight water?
