I was surprised it came disassembled. There were also no guides or a wedge that is usually driven into the top of the handle to lock it in place. Maybe it wasn't in this product, but there were no instructions, and there was a hole on the handle for such a wedge to penetrate. In my opinion the photos do not match what came. In all photos the hammer is assembled, this is not what came. So I'm not sure if the hammer head will stay in place. I'll look for something to complete the assembly.
