Good Quality Hammer, this one is a little small and I wish I bought one size higher, but It is very easy to hold and use. It is one solid piece so I don't have to worry about it coming loose off of the handle. The handle is comfortable to hold and helps cushion strikes well.
Ive pulled many nails out with the backside and I have had no warping of the wedge.

Quality hammer Recommend, but if you are only going to get one hammer go with one size higher.

Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2024
The first thing that I like about this hammer is that it is made in the United States. Other things that I like about these hammers is that they are comfortable to use even for multiple applications wether it's plumbing, electrical general carpentry etc. They are also very durable and will stand the test of time.
As a General Contractor who practices many trades on a daily basis, this tool is a staple in my vast assortment of tools.

5.0 out of 5 stars It’s an Estwing, hard to beat
Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2024
Classic Estwing solid steel construction. Pretty much indestructible. I haven’t messed with newer shock absorbing hammers, but if you want classic, U.S. made quality, these are a great option. I also have a 12 ounce for household use, mainly hanging pictures, as well as a 20 ounce framing hammer. Feel well covered with Estwing hammers.

Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2024
Can't go wrong with Estwing. I used an Estwing forward weight fiberglass handle hammer for many years. After i finally broke the handle, i purchased this one to replace it. It's just like the one i had before the fiberglass model. These last a long time. They're very good hammers.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good hammer
Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2024
I had an estwing years ago and was expecting the same thing. The handle is not as comfortable as it used to be. Maybe I just had a knock-off that was superior, or maybe they changed the handle shape, or maybe I had a lighter model. In any case, this is still a terrific hammer in all respects.
My only real complaint is that, in disrespect to their customers, they covered it in ugly stickers that leave sticky filth all over the hammer when you try to take them off. So get your fingernails and rubbing alcohol ready and set aside 5 minutes to clean it, if you care about this.
