Brass tool ID
« on: April 06, 2017, 11:25:49 PM »
I'm looking for information on the tool below, I'm told it's used for making a caplock and is called a try hammer, but I haven't been able to find any other try hammers on the web. Is there another term for it? I'm thinking about selling it but would like to know the correct name of this tool before I do. I would also be interested to know what they usually sell for.  Thanks for taking a look.

That was kind of funny/surprising to find my own photo when I went to that thread. I had posted this tool elsewhere and apparently someone posted it here to help me find the answer. Thanks for the link!
