Pretty good
A hammer is a tool, most often a hand tool, consisting of a weighted "head" fixed to a long handle that is swung to deliver an impact to a small area of an object. And bit mistake onthe stripe missing not bad. And my hand is small for perfect onthe hammer grip.

I purchased this as a gift!! But it has been well used and is comfortable in your hand, a good weight and well made. It has been well used and has taken everything thrown at it. The only thing it couldn't do was get some old nails, out of a barn, that were made bigger long ago.

Reviewed in Canada on September 11, 2023
Size: 12 oz (Ounces)Verified Purchase
This hammer replaced one I had for many years that mysteriously disappeared from my toolbox! So I knew what to expect and its delivered. Manufacturing looks good and nicely balanced like the old one. Leather handle looks fine too.

This is 12oz hammer. I also have a 16oz with the blue vinyl handle cover. Over time the exposed portion of the 16oz hammer has oddly rusted, so it's been wire wheeled and coated with spray protectant. The new 12oz hammer has also now been sprayed to protect its finish.
