It's a non-marring hammer, could be used for a lot of purposes.
We used to use them to seat gaskets in a groove.

That's what in the US we'd call a spanner wrench (in the UK
they'd call it something else). It's used on the unions in
larger diameter pipe on steam engines and similar things.
Sometimes it's called a hook wrench or a J wrench.

I would call it a spanner wrench. many nuts are not hex or square
shaped, they have notches in the edge.>
