You need to add a claw hammer to the mix. I think you have room.

Hey guys here is a pic of my entire hammer collection.

These are the ones that survived. I gave a bunch of hammers away, 10 years ago. I have a few SCOTTON hammers that were on a half price table. I bought the 7-8 remaining hammers. I keep them in another drawer. My favorite light duty body hammer is SnapOn. I bought it off the SO truck when I was offered a deep discount because the hammer head was installed upside down. One of the hammers on the drawer/rack fell off of a cement truck and hit the bumper of my IHC R120 pickup. I picked it up, replaced the welded on pipe handle with a proper Hickory handle. This became one of my favorites.
I get the impression SCOTTON autobody tool company is gone, now.

Here's a few of mine

 

[racecougar]

Made this rack yesterday. I need to make another rack for the rest of them.

These are my hammers at work. I also added a rubber mallet the other day as well. The 8oz isn’t in the first picture because I took the picture right before I got that one. But I use the heck out of all of them. I plan to add more soon like a brass hammer and maybe a 12oz ball peen to go with the 8 and 16 ounce ones. Also plan to get a few dead blow hammers as well. I have more hammers at home that I don’t have pictures of right now. I’ll have to get a picture of my air hammer as well lol.

These are my main hammer drawers, although this is only about half of my total collection.

Here is some more of my collection that I’ve added recently. Not nearly all the ones though I’ll have to go back and get all the pictures of the ones recently. I have several more than this. I collect hammers. I’m also searching for a large 48oz ball peen if anyone has an extra preferably Blue Point or Vaughn but not a requirement. That’s really the only size ball peen I don’t have. I’ll get the rest of my collection posted here soon. Didn’t realize my lack of hammers when I first posted in this thread lol .

Finally got around to building another rack last month. Here is most of the collection, forgoing a few that are in specific locations in the shop and up at the garage.

From left to right:
Workforce claw hammer from Home Depot...had that for around 9 years. Possibly longer. Still works like a charm. The next two were an Epstein Day purchase...Grayvik 24 oz ball peen and 3 lb drilling hammer. The Vaughn rubber mallet and Nupla dead blow were Prime Day scores in 2019. They've all served me very well.

Just go to a locally owned hardware store. They were plenty of wood hammer handles available last time I looked.

 

[Ton ton]

Brownbagg, it may be time to go back to Greenville, Alabama and see what all that cool old school hardware store has on the shelves. That one you posted pictures of back on September 15th.

I think the only other hammer I want is a smaller ball peen from HF

Cross peen hammers can be used in metal work, stone work, blacksmithing or woodworking.
