When I buy an instrument, I want the quality to match the amount of money I'm spending. And actually I would be glad if I could get better quality for the money I spent on it... when it arrived I had to sand the handle as it was very rough. I also had to sand the head as it was rough too. Very little has been done to make it look like a highly professional instrument. I would appreciate more care and attention to detail being put into the hammer I purchased. Because I could save a ton of money and order a composite-handled hammer to do the same damn job. But instead I got this one, thinking I was going to get something better than most other hammers. I was disappointed. I hope the owners will read this because here in America we made reliable tools and cared about our customers because it was the right thing to do.
