KSEIBI 271075 Engineers Machinist Blacksmith Strike Club Hammer Wooden Handle (1.10 lb / 500 grams)

In a nutshell This hammer head has questions about durability, but it is still worth the money.

The handle contour is easy to grip in close proximity to the head of the hammer. In addition to removing the lacquer finish from the handle, I ground the face and peen of the tool to dress them properly, but I did not have to grind a great deal and I was able to do it using Which brings me to the core of my As a result of hardening. I'm striking out, but I'm still striking out). Since the sparks while dressing on the belt grinder were so few and sporadic, I suspect it is the carbon content. Do not expect to hit something hard with a Overall, it is a very good deal for what it is. The fact that there is damage on the face after the first use is not enjoyable, but it is otherwise a good product. In the event that it lasts a whole year, then I'll likely buy another, but if it starts breaking apart then I'll definitely It would be a good buy at this price point either way.

You should be careful when you buy! There is nothing good about this product. Head made in a crude manner. I cannot put the handle in the hole because it is too big. Glue was used to cover the gaps (barely) when it was glued in, but the handle was split once it was put in.

Despite this hammer's excellent head, the handle is the reason I only gave it 3 stars. After about 10 swings on soft orange hot metal, the handle cracked halfway at the very end with the least amount of resistance from the head (which I cannot understand). There is still very little metal left on the hammer, but it is also loose in the handle, and the epoxy they put on it has done nothing but make it harder to repair. There were a lot of comments about the price, but I was told it was only 17 bucks. I will replace the handle, and it will last forever. Don't be surprised if you have to do some work on this.

This is a great deal for the money. While they are ready to 'go to work' out of the box, they are not yet ready to be used. To use the faces, they must be correctly dressed before use since they have sharp chamfers. A second problem is that the handles are somewhat rough and need to be sanded. It may seem as if these are not relevant to the average buyer / user This is a selling point, but not a big deal to me since I do it with every hammer I purchase. It is a great hammer for the price and it works well for what I am using it for.

Oh was I so nave. When I used this bladesmithing tool in my beginners course, I thought it was a good As quickly as possible it became apparent that the edges are so indented that they will leave a mark on whatever material you are working with, the handle is slightly twisted but all in all the small spaces after they assemble the items at the factory are entirely acceptable. It is sealed with some kind of glue to ensure a perfect fit. There are better hammers on the market, however, if you are looking for a hammer that can be used in one or two places, this is it. However, do not expect absolute quality or durability from this hammer.

In the other reviews, it has been mentioned many times that the product is not of Immediately out of the box, the head was loose and after a few test taps I was able to separate it completely from the frame. The handle was not seated correctly in the top part of the head, so there was "epoxy" filling it. In order to accommodate the hole in the handle better, I removed the epoxy and cut the handle down slightly. In addition to reinstalling the head, I installed a proper wedge and the head seems to be securely on There is some edge dressing to do but it is a great size for drawing out thin metal, even when the edges need dressing as well. As for whether it holds up, we'll have to see.

The handle seems to be pine and it is not set with any wedge of any sort. The head seems to be fine, but the handle is pine and it does not have a wedge. After the second swing, the head of the one I got flew off. It is recommended that you also buy a proper handle and wedges for.

The hammer is a nice little piece. There is one complaint I have about the handle being epoxied and wedged between the wheels. As soon as I worked on it, it came loose. As a result of redoing the wedge and pulling the handle, the wedge works perfectly now.
