Golden hammer

The Golden hammer is a reward from using a golden cracker on another player. This item was released on 20 December 2010. It has no bonuses, and has two right click options for emotes: Brandish (2009) and Spin (2010). These are the years in which Jagex has won the Golden Joystick awards. New players prior to August 31 received the cracker in their bank and were greeted with a message explaining what the item celebrated, however a recent update has removed the message. New accounts may still retrieve the cracker from Diango.

The hammer can be wielded and used to train Smithing by using it on bars, Construction and Crafting (to repair the Blast Furnace), which allows the player an additional inventory slot, since a regular Hammer cannot be wielded. The hammer can not be used at barbarian assault or at Shades of Mort'ton (activity).

The golden hammer weighs 0.9 kg, which is 0.7 kg more than the Golden cracker it came from.

If a player loses their Golden Hammer it can be regained as a Golden Cracker by speaking to Diango near Draynor Village.

Trivia

 * The head of the hammer appears to be a game controller and the handle appears to be a joystick.
 * The hammer can also be used to open the Bandos door in the God Wars Dungeon.
 * Despite being a hammer, you cannot use a Golden hammer to smith a Dragonfire shield. However, if you have the Golden hammer equipped, it will appear as though you are actually using it.
