Can you make a nail magnetic by hitting it with a hammer?

I'm pretty sure that in my senior physics class we did an experiment where, when putting a nail at a certain direction and hitting it with a hammer, it would become magnetic. So far I have searched and tried to find this information and as of yet have not found it again. I can only seem to find information about knocking a magnetized nail out of it's magnetized state. So I'm hoping someone can find this information for me and please if possible give a source!!!





Thanks everyoneCan you make a nail magnetic by hitting it with a hammer?
If the hammer was magnetic.
