Review on 🏏 DOS22S 22 Ounce 18 Inch Smooth Dead by Gabe Smith

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Good balance and feel

Balanced, feels light. Long handle for lots of driving power. This hammer also has a roughened version, but sometimes I don't want dial markers to be visible, so I brought a smooth face for those occasions. The only downside I've found is that you can't pull the nail from the side (a carpenter's trick) as that would bend the handle. Excellent parallel strength but low lateral strength. The big hammer only needs to know this one limitation.

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • Protection
