Review on 🔨 2-Pound Brass Hammer - HAM 456, 20 Inches by Christopher Todd

Nice hammer, I didn't realize the handle was a thin hollow tube (broken at the threads) with a metal rod in the middle. Poor design, good head but if you use this replace the handle if you use it like a 2lb sledgehammer which it is. I was just lucky that I swung this out from under my arm when it broke, which happened when I touched the surface of the drive shaft, the head wanted to turn. I tried to stop it by putting a pen to my head. but apparently the torsion the head created broke the handle after just a few hits after it was glued. The handle is very thin walled tubing with a nice plastic/rubber grip that feels solid. I'm going to try and mix up a large batch of JBweld to put this thing together and just coat everything inside with epoxy. Honestly if I had known this I would have replaced the handle before gluing the threads.
