The NIROC Soft Knock – the perfect hammer for precision work where a steel hammer is simply too aggressive.
Designed for delicate assembly, alignment, fitting, and adjustment work, the Soft Knock features a copper face on one side for controlled, non-marring strikes and a Teflon face on the other for the most sensitive applications.
Whether you're working on machined components, tooling, knives, jewellery, woodworking projects, or precision assemblies, the Soft Knock delivers gentle yet effective striking power without damaging your workpiece.

Built for Precision
The copper face provides a softer impact than steel while still delivering enough force for accurate adjustments and positioning tasks. The Teflon face is ideal for applications where surface protection is critical and marking must be avoided.
This is not a demolition hammer or heavy-duty striking tool—it's a precision workshop hammer designed for careful, controlled work on valuable components and finished surfaces.
Handmade Craftsmanship
Every NIROC Soft Knock is individually handcrafted, meaning no two hammers are exactly alike. Minor variations are part of the character of a handmade tool and reflect the care and attention that goes into each piece.
While perfection is impossible in handmade manufacturing, NIROC stands behind every tool produced. If you're ever unhappy with your purchase, support and assistance are always available.
Built to Last
The copper and Teflon faces are designed for years of normal workshop use. While replacement is possible if ever required, this hammer is intended for gentle tapping and precision work rather than heavy striking applications.
A premium soft-faced hammer for machinists, toolmakers, fabricators, knife makers, woodworkers, and anyone who values quality handmade workshop tools.
