Excellent Product.It is hard to believe that a basic tool, such as a hammer could be improved.We all have standard hammers and as part of a small kitchen tool kit, we have a couple of screw drivers and hammers from the dollar store.We are under going an extensive house remodeling and baring walls down to the studs.Pros:This hammer has a nice weight to it that it is hard to find in other brands.The side indention to remove nails is a must when working in tight spaces that don't allow the longer nail puller to be used.The grip is excellent. It allows for a firm grip when you need it most and cushions the blows to reduce stress to hand/joints.The flat head is exactly what we needed. (There is a version with the milled -indented- head)Magnetic nail started - Very useful.Solidly built in one piece. No welds or joints.Sears price is over $100 and Amazon has it for less than half the price. Home Depot price is comparable (as of this writing) to Amazon, but it is not always in stock or it may not be the 19 ounce version (as we found out).Cons:I only list the cons here that some people may find these important. We don't because the product does what we need it to do.* The price may be too steep for someone who occasionally drives a nail through the wall.* The color is black, not blue as described on Amazon's website.

This hammer is great. I recently replaced an old fiberglass handle hammer with this and the shock absorption of the Estwing is superior. I will say, the 15oz version I have does feel a little light for framing. It worked, but maybe a 20oz would have served me better. None the less, I chose this one because I liked the all black theme of it. It is a hammer and I in no way expect it to stay looking good, but I will say that my hammer loop is metal and it quickly wore and chipped the black paint off the base of the hammer head and most of the shaft where the Estwing name is. Like I said, I don't care because its a hammer...but if that is something that's going to bother you, then I'd suggest the unpainted all silver version.

Ordered a 15oz textured face with rubber grip, twice, and was sent a 19oz smooth face with leather grip, twice. Amazon has the wrong item inside the bubble wrap, the exterior label is correct that they scan. Here is the review of what I actually received:19oz Smooth face leather wrapped hammer. This is a big framing hammer. Really, you can get some larger nails in with 1-2 hits easily. The balance is excellent, although the weight took me some getting used to. I absolutely love the nail starter. It works like a charm. The face hits cleanly and doesn't slide off the nail. The leather grip is nice, if you like that thing. My arm was not appreciative.Overall, this is a good hammer that is built to last. I just wish it was the hammer I ordered and want to use for my job.

The best framing hammer I've ever held hands down. I like every aspect of it, the weight, the length, the color/shape... It's not too heavy but still can pack a whallop for when you need it. The magnetic nail set and side nail puller are also a very nice touch! As everyone else said though... there is no eagle on it! I won't let that affect my review but don't get your hopes up.

Good hammer. The head is slightly smaller than the standard 22oz estwing everyone loves and from the front of the neck to the front of the head is about a quarter inch shorter. Has great balance, better shock absorption than the standard 22, and also a bit less ding when you strike a nail. I use a metal D holder and i like to cut a pyramid shape out of the leather so the hammer handle doesn't get caught and with this hammer it can actually fall out of the holder so I had to mod my holder a bit to stop that from happening.Overall I like the hammer and it's now my main driver because it feels very good to swing.

So much better than I expected. I am a professional trim carpenter. I am honestly more used to using 16 ounce hammers. However, I occasionally do other carpentry work like some framing and decks. I have found myself using this 19 ounce hammer so much more than expected. Even in my trim work. It's very well balanced and doesn't feel heavy at all. Loving it.

Excelente producto, forjado en una sola pieza. Aunque creo que el costo es elevado, lo que convierte a el martillo en un capricho y no en una necesidad.

Very nice - I was starting to get worried that it might be too heavy and that the 15oz would be better, but it's fine. For light tapping, just hold it further up the handle, to really belt something hold it normally. After a bit of practice, I got a better feel for the balance - just get it moving, and it will do the work - the nail goes in effortlessly. And build wise, it seems very tough. I guess the paint will eventually scratch, but well, its a hammer! What I really do like is the straight claw - my other hammer is an old Stanley (my grandfather's so I'm holding on to it!), with a pronounced curve. Good for getting out nails, but a lot of the time I was using it to pry things, and it was often awkward for this. This hammer is great - just whack it into the gap (or make a gap!) and lever. Given that I'm just a DIYer, it will probably outlast me.

Man kann auch Nägel ziehen die minimal aus dem Holz rausschauen , der Griff sitzt bombenfest . Nach 6 Monaten täglicher Benutzung kommt mir der Standard Zimmermannshammer wie Spielzeug vor da dieser doch schon ne ganze Ecke größer ist . Er hat halt keine Spitze aber die klaue ist echt scharf . Top Werkzeug !
