"Excellent tool" 2010-05-03By
H. ChandlerThere are many different kinds of specialised hammers; no one hammer will do all jobs well. I found this hammer to be an excellent replacement for a conventional 16 oz. claw hammer and great for finish work. I feel it has better balance than the conventional hammer, has a greater reach, has side faces that can be used for driving, has a superb claw for pulling nails with far better leverage and grip than a conventional hammer, and has a long, straight handle for multiple grip positions. Many conventional hammers will dampen shock well, as this one does. I find it easier to control than a conventional 16 oz. claw hammer. At 14 oz. it is a bit easier to handle, yet seems to drive as effectively as a slightly more massive hammer. It's not miraculous; it's only a hammer. But it's the best of it's type that I have used in my many decades of using hammers. The only time I have felt it had a flaw was in unusual tight quarters where the handle is too long. But the long handle in other circumstances gives more leverage and is a plus. Still, the hammer doesn't do the work alone; there has to be a person too, and different people have different styles. It may be that this hammer will not fit everyone as well as it fits me.

I have no complaints about this hammer, but from the reviews I thought it was going to be something incredible. It gets the job done, and is different if you're into having things that are different. Maybe if you're a professional finish carpenter you would get the finer points of this hammer.

I guess it's a little early but after my first day swinging it this feels just right to me. The only negative so far is getting used to where the end of the longer handle bumps my knee when it's hanging from it's loop. Time to order the framer now.

I've been swinging a hammer for over 40 years, and this is the best finish hammer I've used. Buying one for my daughter so I can have mine back.
