Don't waste your money on this! We bought it and the first time we used it one of the girls hit the tent pole and broke the hammer handle! It split into 2 parts right next to the hammer head. Absolutely useless. I was very disappointed as it turned out to be a decent product. We had to use rocks to set tent pegs. If you have very hard ground this hammer won't hold. I can't even return it so it was a waste of money.
Has the task of driving in tent pegs. However, the hook twisted and stretched when attempting to pull out the tent's pegs. I'll probably replace the hook with a stronger one from the hardware store. The hammer part is still useful. Tip: When preparing to pull out the tent poles, first loosen them with a hammer before attempting to pry them out with a hook. Once we figured that out, we were even able to remove the tent poles with the hook pulled out.
If you can drive stakes into harder dirt, use a regular hammer. This thing just bounces off the stakes instead of driving them in. And if you need to get them out of tougher dirt, pry them back up with a regular hammer and tap back and forth a bit to loosen and get them. When he tried to use it, the hook stretched almost to a straight position, he couldn't. Tried and didn't work in this situation with harder dirt. Although most likely it will work in soft mud.
Oh my god. I bought it for $5.96 to advance bets on my reach goals. Coleman 10-In says he did a great job with the controls. The steel tent is stuck into the ground. The horror started when it was time to draw them. When I grabbed the dear old boy by the neck and pulled, the hook at the base of the hammer opened. If I hadn't had my Leatherman Rev in my pocket (I had to use pins to make a makeshift puller), I would have had to leave my stands at the shooting range. If you're just using it to…
First time hiking with this hammer. Shot 1: Hit about three tent poles as a few heads fell off. I managed to put it back in place but it flew away after a few hits. Eventually I clamped the stick to the side of my head and it held up a little better allowing me to use it by occasionally pushing my head back in. Impact 2: The rubber head is not designed at all for driving pegs into a tent. After a single use, the head is completely chewed up. I can see it starting to break down after a few more…
I already have a rubber mallet and it's one of my favorite tools. a stake to attach the tarp to the wood • hammer in a stake for a street volleyball net • hammer to seal the lid of a can of leftover paint • hammer for a floor covering • drive cobblestones into a layer of packed sand • basically something no hammering worry about breakage or scratches If you've never used a rubber mallet before, you don't know what you're missing out on. A rubber mallet is much safer and easier to use than a…
