The tool in our Minimal Hammer cursor pack has been used by humans for thousands of years and has played a significant role in the development of civilization. One interesting fact about the hammer is that it is one of the few tools that has remained virtually unchanged in design throughout history. The basic hammer consists of a handle and a weighted head, which is typically made of metal. The head is usually shaped into a flat or curved surface on one end and a pointed or rounded surface on the other.
