Hammer sound effects for building things and smashing them. Nails driven into timber, and a blacksmith's hammer ringing out on the anvil. Then the weapons. War hammers swing heavy and slow before landing with a crunch, and out in a quarry, steel hammers crack into solid rock.

Every hammer blow has a ring and a thud, and the balance between them tells you what's being hit. Nails into wood are mostly thud, with a sharp tap as the head meets the nail, while a Blacksmith working hot iron is mostly ring. Crafting games lean on hammers more than almost anything, since every build and repair needs a hit, so variations matter. On a Construction Site the hammering blends into tools and machines. In combat, a war hammer needs a big, slow whoosh before it lands, much heavier than an Axe. The gore recordings cover what happens when a hammer meets something softer.
