The reflex hammer is a common medical instrument used for eliciting the response of deep tendon reflexes. Developed in the 1800s, it arguably is one of the oldest and most widely recognized basic exam tools. This well-known piece of equipment helps physicians test neurological function and judge abnormalities in the central and peripheral nervous system. Most people know a reflex hammer as the tool that a doctor uses to tap a patient below the kneecap, but they also can be used on other parts of the body.

There are many shapes and models of the basic reflex hammer. The Taylor, or tomahawk reflex hammer is the most widely known. It consists of a triangular rubber head affixed to a straight, metallic chrome handle.
