Open dies can be used with a power hammer, treadle hammer or in some cases a hand hammer to forge specific images into ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Open dies are one sided, meaning they only produce the image on one side. Cut away excess flashing with a port-a-band saw. Use hand files to further define the image.
Quantity:
The open die with handle used to make this large mouse is the product you would be buying, not the mouse. This large mouse can be made with 5/8 inch round stock hammered directly into the open die. For production work and to get a cleaner image without flashing purchase the closed die called "pre-mouse" to get this pre formed teardrop. Form the pre-mouse, re-heat and hammer into the large mouse open die.
