In History :
The most famous of hammers is Obviously Mjolnir, a War Hammer made by the Dwarfs with a shorter than normal handle due to Loki's intervention! Hammers have been used throughout history as tools and weapons due to the ease of making them and widespread availability. It is a very old weapon and gave its name, owing to its constant use, to Judah Maccabee, a 2nd-century BC Jewish rebel, and to Charles Martel, one of the rulers of France. 

Care instructions:
•Carbon steel will rust so please use oil after use. I recommend Mineral Oil as it can be used on the handle and leather sheath too, veg oil can also be used.
• If stored for any length of time, oil and then wrap in plastic, clingfilm works great. This is to prevent rusting.
