New Tool Types

How do I create a new tool type. 

There are Swords, Picks, Axes, etc. but how would I make a tool type called mace, or hammer.

It depends on what you want to do with them:

If it is purely combat-based you could set it to sword(sweep attack), axe(shield break, make sure to add double durability), or shovel(no special ability, breaks twice as fast as a sword), if you set it to a tool, make sure to set the harvest level and mining speed to 0.  you can also create an alternative texture and change the name for a re-skin.

If you want a tool that breaks certain blocks, you might be able to use the "special" tool type, although I have not used it very much, so I can't offer much advice for it.

If you want alternative break effects(change drops, AOE mine, ect) you will want to look into adding procedure either to block breaks, or to the tool itself.

You could create an enchantment that can specifically go onto tools of your new type, by using the Can Be Applied to field.  I don't know how you could get it to work with specific vanilla enchants though.
