🔨 Stanley Wood Hammer - 51-106 Ounces Review

Like everyone else I have to say this is a great little hammer. The magnetic end is handy. He has enough strength to pick up and tack, but lets go of the tack without a fight. The balance is excellent; Turning the hammer from "set" to "pound" seems correct, and the length and diameter of the shank also seems correct. I felt like a pro even though I'm not!

Purchased for my new home staging project. Decided to take on the ottoman and use big upholstery nails and the hammer worked great! I was a bit skeptical at first thinking it would just be a waste of money and the hammer would work for sure. Oh god I was wrong. If I used a regular hammer my buttons would bend and my money would fly in the wind! I'm glad I made the wise choice and now I have this for all that future homework.

Better to have a magnetic than a non-magnetic one. Those darn tiny upholstery nails are everywhere. And given that you do a little tapping with your fingers, you can simplify one aspect of lifting after knocking over a jar with tiny nails. Do yourself a favor and brew a beer or G&T. This work is tedious because it is worthwhile. = good hammer.

I spent $9.63 on this and oh my god it was worth it. I've used it for various upholstery nail/nail projects. Nailing to my sink liner (picture attached), molding, large mirrored accent frames, nailing to doors, etc. has kept the nails from being wasted by bending or marking in my various projects. .I bought the smallest size and it definitely cost less than ten dollars!

Good day everyone! Hammer is good though. On one side, a rivet, or rather a washer, flew off. But I don't find anything serious, we will fix and fix. Well balanced. I will send pictures after the rivet is replaced. I found the exact same hammer at another store for $13 cheaper but something is being done. I will buy a replacement and give it to my beloved nephew. By the way, it's made in Mexico. Good luck and prosperity to everyone!

This is a nice little traditional magnetic nail hammer. It was made in China for Stanley and both the head and the handle are carefully finished. I plan to use it to introduce my young grandchildren to nailing and maybe let them develop some skills. This hammer is the perfect size for this purpose, small enough and light enough for small hands. I remember learning the same skills from my father over 60 years ago, with the same hammer.

The hammer advertised in the photo is not the one I received from the seller. I contacted the manufacturer directly (Stanley), apparently the hammer is a new style and no one has bothered to update the photo. My husband has been using the original hammer for over 15 years and absolutely loves it. He bought this new style at a local hardware store a few years ago and the metal shell broke almost immediately. The new style is much worse. The seller fully refunded the money after returning the…

I bought this hammer to replace my Stanley with a hammer. I've had this hammer for 12 years and have hammered millions of nails. I've had many times where the batting plate knocked me out due to a chip in the grip. In 12 years they built about 400 houses, they never replaced the handle. This new overlay record is a sad apology for what it used to be. It doesn't fit well, only fits up to the base of the head, not below. I see that this plate will damage my pouch when placed in the holster. This…

First off, I want to say that I work the hammer harder than most frame builders. I build commercial frame buildings and have had no luck being able to use 8's and 16's. I usually rock 20d, 40d and 60d rings. The "hit plate" shown in the picture is not what appears on the hammer. The picture shows it bolted front to back and what came up on my hammer was just two cheap rivets on the side. Needless to say, after missing a few hangnails. It broke and the fuse plate fell off. I put a few screws in…
