John Sir, are you referring to the circumferential groove? If so, I believe it serves no function but is entirely done for aesthetics. I too, like it very much. I have one or two guns with such hammers.

Yes Sir that is it.

Very attractive to my eye.

Some have it and some don't. Seems to be more common to early guns. Just wondering when they stopped/ ceased doing it.

Was it an upgrade option or standard?
