If early humans crafted a hammer or an axe from metal for example. How on earth did they craft the first tool that was used to create that hammer or axe. I know you can create a hammer from natural material like stone and an axe from a sharp piece of stone but how did they forge the first metal tools and even weapons?

Something not explicitly mentioned yet is also that you can just use a wooden or stone hammer to work metal, especially softer ones such as copper. If one absolutely needs to, one could even do steel that way. Rocks are damn hard and can with some effort be put into shapes and sharpened, while wood is good for blunt things and handles.
