Review: Hammers are designed to drive nails, pulling a nail is secondary - Perfect framing hammer, for me and my application, it hits hard and is an extension of my hand, not overly heavy and not too light, the hatchet style handle offers an excellent angle of approach for driving 20P. To 60P. Galvanized nails without much effort. . . And keeps my knuckles off the lumber. As far as the handles go, the grain orientation to the head is quite ideal, sometimes in Perfect alignment. The varnish on the handle is there to do 2 things, keep it pretty until it's purchased and allow you to see the grain of the handle. As a general rule, never purchase a wooden handled striking tool with a painted handle, paint hides flaws. I always sand the factory varnish off, and properly apply boiled linseed oil. Preserves the wood and helps with the grip in wet weather. And just as a side note, your hammer should fit you, not Billyray gorilla hands, work smarter not harder. . .and if you find your breaking handles. . . They make nail pullers for a reason. . .

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there a version without the waffle face?**
A: Estwing does not currently make a smooth faced version of this hammer.

**Q: what is the size and shape of top where it goes in eye?**
A: It's shaped like an Almond. It's 1 1/2 inches front to back and 1 inch side to side.

**Q: So does this hammer have an inch and half face? True cali framer?**
A: This is a great framing hammer. It does have a 1 1/2 inch face. The wooden handle has good grain for strength. I don't know what you mean by a true Cali framer, but this is a really great framing hammer.

**Q: What is the warranty on this hammer? Can I get this with a fiberglass or one piece metal handle?**
A: No warranty.  I had a handle break on me, but just don’t rely on this to pull 20d nails out of 6x8 syp all day.  Drives nails like a boss.  I picked up the 28 oz version with the all metal handle, but I’m missing the nail setter and the curved handle.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best hammer I’ve ever owned.
*by R***S on June 20, 2023*

This is easily the best hammer I have ever had and I have had quite a few. I’ve never had a titanium one but my guess is short of that this is about as good as you can get. The head of the hammer is large enough that you don’t miss your target even when you become fatigued so you can stay no productive all day. I a try to take care of my tools but of course I am hard on them sometimes too, and I don’t feel like this is going to snap on me anytime soon, I’m sure you could break the handle if you we’re trying to but that is the trade off of wood. I have had lighter hammers but this one swings like it doesn’t weight what it does but still packs the same punch that it should. The only thing I am not a fan of is the fact, and honestly I am surprised at Estwing, that it is made in Taiwan. I would pay $10-20 for an American made product, but this is still a quality product.
