This hammer delivers solid performance that you can count on when working with tough materials in the Industrial and Scientific sector. Based on my observations, it wont let you down when you need a heavy-duty hand tool to get the job done .The weight of the hammer allows you to make quick work of your tasks, completing them in no time. The only con I would note is that it may be too heavy for prolonged use but that's not something that can't be managed. Overall, it's a great tool to add to your collection for those tough projects that require a durable and reliable hammer..
