A woman was attacked in Asheboro with a hammer. The local paper described the hammer as a ball ping hammer but I do believe the correct hammer would have been a ball peen hammer.
A claw hammer has a forked end that is designed to pull nails out while a ball peen hammer has a round nub instead of the claw. I'm not really positive about the use of the ball peen but I would guess it would be used to deliver the last strike or two to the nail head as it would be less likely to leave an imprint on the surface of the material the nail is being driven into.
I suppose I could research it but I really don't need to know.
