No idea why it's rated light. Bought a hammer for the weight we were looking for. It can be easy or difficult. This hammer is balanced for my needs and weighs what I need. I love handles and have had one of these hammers for about 30 years. It's as good as this new one I just bought. I wanted a different one for multiple locations where my tools are.
