Then why name it that??
"A ball-peen (also spelled pein) hammer, also known as a machinist's hammer, is a type of peening hammer used in metalworking. It is classified differently from a cross-peen hammer, point-peen hammer, or chisel-peen hammer by having a hemispherical head."
Peening is a method for working metal to make it harder. It would appear your use is more for tenderizing some meat.
