Hammers, not sure about a specific online tutorial, but hammer shapes and weight make a big difference. This also depends on the type work you are doing. I use diffent hammers like golfers use clubs. Some guys use one hammer for everything. There is a hammer control tutorial on www.anvilfire.com check out the Iforge pages. check the archives also check the archives or ask at the junkyard at www.keenjunk.com
the forums at www.customknifedirectory would be a good place to ask also.
For heavy work I use a 4lb hammer for putting in the bevels I use a 2lb. and a modified ball pein, the face is elongated and rounded in the direction of the bevel.
