While cleaning out the basement I found an old hammer head that is still in great shape. install a new handle. As I understood it, it was easier said than done. I've searched all hardware stores to no avail. I came here and found this American ballpoint pen with all the seals that came with it. I installed it per the instructions (I added some wood glue to the wood spacer) and am thrilled with my "new" hammer. It is very comfortable and has a very good length. Thanks Vaughan
