Review on MintCraft 33701 Hammer 2 Pound Handle by Rob Madden

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good for beginners, best hand tools

Pretty good hammer for a beginner blacksmith. There were some machining marks on the front that needed erasing (okay, they do NOT need to be removed as they were quite small, but they show up a bit in the finished pieces) and I felt the handle had to be except for one piece shaved. Also, the varnish on the handle is great for blistering, so you'll need to sand it down and treat the wood with linseed oil. However, I've been using this hammer for almost a year and it does the job.

Pros
  • Power and hand tools
Cons
  • Big and bulky
