Review on πŸ”¨ Estwing Metalworking Ball Peen Hammer by Brian Kingsford

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Quality Control Issue

This hammer appears to be of high quality but many of the small details appear to be wrong. The material of the handle is rough and unfinished, the metal on the neck of the hammer has chips, and the biggest problem is that in order for it to be a ball-head hammer, there must be a ball on the back of the hammer. Unfortunately whoever ground and finished this head didn't round the ball, there are two distinct grinding marks leading to a blunt point in the centre, making it useless as a ball hammer as it will cut into the material. leave a line. I will be returning this item and trying to get another one....I will update after I receive the second one. I have attached photos to show any problems as proof.

Pros
  • Hand Tool
Cons
