  I also found (or bought?) a "Light Hammer +1" that not only looks different from the "Light Hammer +1" sold by Dammon but instead of "Smash" it has "Searing Smite".

  Not sure where I obtained it though but I thought I'd share because the name is the same but the appearance and effects are quite different. :)
