 I've heard of shoulders, heads, and crowns, but never a nose. What area do you consider to be the nose?

Hello,

 

Did I just read somewhere that the tone of the hammers may be brightened by adding lacquer at the “nose” of the molding?

 

Can that be done on all hammers or just certain types?

 

Thank you
