🔨 Estwing Ball Peen Hammer: Premium Metalworking Industrial Power & Hand Tool Review

I don't see why anyone would buy a hammer with a separate handle. The only reason you'll ever need to replace this is if you've lost or misused it.

I bought this hammer because in many places you can no longer find a ball hit. We ordered this to do some mottle on 1/16" sheet metal and it worked so well. The weight was perfect because I didn't feel like I was doing that much work. The quality exceeds all expectations. This hammer will definitely accompany me for the rest of my life.

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.

I've been debating what size hammer I need for my job at the auto repair shop. I was reluctant to get 1 piece due to its use and considered a wooden handled hammer. I chose the east wing based on previous experiences with their products and am glad I did. I experience no shock/vibration from it. The bullet end has a slight taper as other reviews have said, but it's not terrible and doesn't bother me.

Estwing solid hammers are of a very high quality and although slightly more expensive than most hammers they are well worth the price. The padded grips work well, reducing hand fatigue and the bottom of the grip expands so you can "click" a little as you swing. One-piece construction makes this hammer virtually unbreakable in normal use and has a better balance point than wooden-handled hammers. Also, you don't have to worry about the hammer head coming off this hammer like you would with a…
