A hammer is a tool that players use primarily for Smithing and Construction. It is used in many quests, like Dragon Slayer, In Aid of the Myreque, Animal Magnetism and The Great Brain Robbery. It can be placed in the tool belt, so carrying one in the inventory is unnecessary unless if it needs to be handed over.

Hammers can be found upstairs in the Faladian forge and in a crate in the Lumbridge furnace. They can also be obtained from a tool store 1 in a player-owned house workshop.

A hammer is one of the base ingredients for creating a hammer-tron, the augmented version of the hammer.
