Grandpa's Hammer
5 Stars
Grandpa's Hammer
This is Great Hammer that will last decades with proper care and maintenance. I grew up in a builder/construction family and this is the hammer my grandpa used for 20 years or more I wish I still had the the original. Two hammer company's that were always most used and dependable were Vaughan and Estwing because they do a job well and last a long time. Lately I've been organizing my tools and upgrading some of them, so I noticed I didn't have a good medium size hammer, I have been using a workpro 10 oz. hammer for odd jobs around the house and a Vaughan 21 oz. Hammer for heavy duty jobs. I wanted something in the middle and I knew I wanted Estwing so I went with the 16 oz Curved Claw with Smooth Face, The smooth face so it won't mar whatever i'm working on and claw to give that extra prying power. The 16 oz. is perfect for control and accuracy and the metal tang means you don't have to change the handle or have a loose/wobbly hammer head. The grip is a comfortable, the plastic/rubber is very durable of course if you abuse it and use the handle to pry or scrape rough objects it's going to deteriorate and break apart, I have seen people completely wreck their tools using them in idiotic ways. The only disappointment was the Estwing Logo is NOT yellow, it's just engraved in the handle with no color added and that is not how I grew up with the logo looking, it was always yellow letters on a blue handle, I think you can still find it in some models but I'm not going to hunt it down so I'm just enjoy it for what it is. Made in the USA and at 16 oz you can do light to heavy work all day with this and it won't let you down for a lifetime. I added a pic with my vintage Stanley 6oz. ball peen hammer next to the Estwing 16oz.

Reviewed in Brazil on November 1, 2022
Usado em um marcenaria hobby, esse martelo é ótimo. O balanço entre a cabeça e o cabo é muito bom, dando confiança para o uso rotineiro. O revestimento do cabo tem ótimo grip e não há qq indício de que ele algum dia vá se soltar. Esse modelo tem a cabeça pequena (20 mm). Se eu fosse comprar outro, compraria um modelo maior. Mas, para I uso que tenho, não me arrependi da compra nem por um minuto.
