Good work on the restoration, a lot of people tend to sand/grind off rust pitting but I always think it adds character to the tool and show it has a history. One thing I will say is that if you intend for this little hammer to be used then a wedge of some kind to help keep the head in place would be worthwhile. Last thing you need is the head flying off as you're trying to swing it. Overall solid video, keep up the good work!
Thank you!!! I did think about adding a wedge but as it was only a small hammer I decided not to, looking back it was probably the wrong decision so I may have to got back and rectify it.

Please add a retention wedge... Even if it's just a small hammer, the head might come off and...well, you know 😅
