2
3	* BludgeonedToDeath: Using weapons, including hammers, to fatally beat someone.
4	* BrutishCharacterBrutishWeapon: Brutal and physically powerful characters are associated with crude and direct weaponry, such as hammers.
5	* CarryABigStick: Using blunt objects, including hammers, as a weapon.
6	* HammeredIntoTheGround: Beating something into the earth as if they were a nail being hammered into wood, such as with an actual hammer.
7	* HammerOfTheHoly: Hammers and maces are particularly associated with religious fighters like priests, clerics, and paladins.

9	* HyperspaceMallet: Characters in cartoony comedies are prone to pulling hammers [[{{Hammerspace}} out of nowhere]] to smash people for a laugh.

11	* ThunderHammer: A hammer with ShockAndAwe abilities, usually derived from [[Myth/NorseMythology Thor's hammer, Mjölnir]].
