It is a masterpiece. It is a solid titanium that gets the job done. Received this for christmas. I love it. Might appear light but dont be fooled.
when you hit a board trying to move it, the hammer just bouces off. this hammer can not move a board. if your doing a little bit of everything, my personal favorite is my 20 oz vaughn. i do like this hammer. it pounds nails like a 24 oz, however, for demolition, its horrible. if all your doing is pounding nails, then this is a great hammer.
He loved the hammer and couldn't wait to use it in his building trades class. It was half of any price we could find at our local hardware stores. This hammer was for our son's birthday. The price was great.
Her aged father loves anything that makes her happy.Yeah. They paint the heads pink and work the bejeebers out of any old guy who shows up to laugh. My wild and wonderful daughter does Habitat for Humanity with an informal group of other wild women who call themselves "The Stiletto Group". They like the name because it calls up the immage of stiletto Ladies sexy high heel shoes. My daughter likes the work, and loves the hammer.
and easy to stay accurate all day. The swing speed on this hammer is FAST. Again, pull nails sparingly. I started framing in 1973 starting with a TrueTemper "Rocket". The claws are not designed to really seat a 16D tight deep into the claw near the head where you get maximum leverage for pulling the occasional nail The claws are not really sharp enough to really grab the shank of a 16D whose head has broken off to remove sideways. The magnet will eventually fall out.3.
There is no better way (other than an air nailer) to nail overhead soffits etc than with these lighter hammers. The titanium waffle head is pretty much smooth now but it still has enough friction to hold onto the nail. If your doing demo, get a steel handle hammer, if your pulling nails, have a Estwing steel handle, Rocket or other tank. 1. This hammer excels at one thing ONLY, nailing. I am still using my titanium(s).
If you are framing and need to knock wood around, have a small sledge nearby. Get a spare handle, I really like the curved handle2.
