Decent inexpensive hammer

This is a good inexpensive hammer. It scratches pretty easily, but it's a *hammer*. I've used it for some general "hammer" tasks, hammering nails, pushing boards apart, pulling nails, pushing things that don't want to be pushed etc. I've used it recently to restore some 2x4s that had been taken by the wall. and they had nails in them. I wanted to reuse 2x4 so I have to use a claw to get the nails out. Steelhead is strong and hits well. The fiberglass and plastic handle is lightweight and comfortable. It's a lot lighter than my old hammer and the balance took some getting used to because now the head is a lot heavier than the handle on this hammer. It's not necessarily bad, it just takes a little getting used to. The handle absorbs vibrations a little better than my old hammer. All in all, this is a good hammer for typical home use. And it's inexpensive. Even if you have a favorite hammer, it's a good addition to your toolbox if you want to keep a spare hammer with you.

Pros
  • Claw hammers
Cons
  • unreliable
