As a professional in the Industrial and Scientific field, I was looking for a sturdy hammer to handle some heavy-duty tasks .As a result of my tests, I determined that this fiberglass hammer is a fantastic choice. Its lightweight, easy to handle, and THE 10-pound weight can handle even the hardest jobs. The fiberglass grip provides excellent shock resistance and can withstand long hours of work. The only downside is that the length of the handle may not be suitable for everyone. Overall I would highly recommend this hammer to anyone in need of an excellent industrial hand tool..
