A nail punch, or nail set, is a small hardened steel tool designed to drive nail heads slightly below a wood surface without damaging the surrounding material.By tapping the punch with a hammer, craftspeople create a neat recess over the nail head that can be filled, sanded, and painted over for a seamless finish.
Choosing the proper tip size and applying controlled hammer taps prevents slipping and avoids leaving unwanted gouges in detailed woodworking or trim.
Although simple, this traditional instrument remains essential for achieving refined, professional craftsmanship in cabinetry, furniture, and carpentry projects.
