First, the picture is wrong. He doesn't have a metal face. But that's ok, I knew it was wrong when I bought it. I can't trust these pictures from Revane. Do a little research to make sure you get it. But anyway, look, I've got hammers, several dozen. I have deathblows. It instantly became my favorite. I double crossed everything. Rebound is almost zero. The grip is excellent. Fiberglass feels comfortable and durable. If you must go into battle with a hammer, choose this one.
