Looks like an old english pattern cabinet makers hammer to me to set small brads you held them between thumb and forefinger and let the crosspeen slip between your fingers till the brad was set.

I think that Thomas Powers hit the nail on the head, pun intended. We call them Warrington hammers or pin hammers. The thin peen was supposed to hit the brad head, not your fingers.
