Comfortable and pleasant handle with a soft touch that fits perfectly in the hand. However, it is not lightweight. I mean it's a hammer not a feather duster lol. I was a little confused by the look of the hammers. They looked "shabby" and a bit used, but they were packaged๐คท๐พโโ๏ธ and looked poorly put together. You can see the excess glue used to attach the head to the handle and it has some scratches. If a hammer looked like this on a store shelf, I wouldn't hesitate to bypass it. But I hate sending things back in the mail so I'm sticking with it.
