This example is simple but well designed and built for maximum efficiency, with a steel head and steel haft sheathing a wooden core. The hook on one side at the top of the haft would allow the war hammer to be worn on a belt or attached to a saddle or harness. The hole near the midpoint of the haft is for a wrist cord..
