Review on ⚒️ Authentic Picard 0000811 1500 Blacksmiths Swedish Pattern - Premium Quality for Superior Metalworking Results by Jay Liu

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Well made hammer

Same face to face ratio as a 1000g hammer This is literally and simply a larger version. The same goes for the handle, which is a slightly larger (and slightly longer) version. Same (good) fit and finish. Ready for the user to polish the surface and surface to the desired radius and polish the surface. I could do without paint on my head, but that's okay. The handles are ash (the prefix "811-" stands for ash), not hickory. For me, the grain is perfectly straight. Ash versions are processed approx. 30% cheaper than hickory handle versions. I think that makes them a good value. Use an ash handle until it breaks or wears out, then replace it with hickory for less than the price difference. between hammers of ash and hickory. These are good forged hammers, not cast as some seem to think.

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Fits
