This makes it easy to drive brads or points, as you can hold the handle at any angle, as long as both faces touch the surface. The round faceis used for pinning corners or flattening glazing points or for general work.
Weighs 4 oz and is 10-3/8" long overall. A great addition to a framer’s tool kit.
