Customer Reviews
Excellent hammer! The balance is perfect and the hickory handle feels great in hand. Used it for a deck renovation and it performed flawlessly. Worth every penny.
Great quality hammer. The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is that it’s slightly heavier than I expected, but that’s more personal preference. Construction is top-notch.
