Im after a hammer with two faces, ideally nylon and steel if such a thing exists. I'd like to carry just one hammer to knock nails for tree tags and as a sounding hammer/mallet. Any ideas or other suggestions much appreciated thanks...

The estwings do look like nice hammers, as do the thors which I'm familiar with. Neither look they have what I'm after though; A dual purpose hammer when surveying snd tagging trees. I'd like a soft face one side for tapping trees, and a hard (steel) face opposite for knocking in nails. Do you think the hard nylon face would knock in many nails for tree tags before becoming a mangled mess?

The nylon side is fine for knocking in tags so long as you don't catch the nail on the edge of the face.
