Why you need this hammer Reliable striking tool for woodworking, carpentry, and general DIY where a durable, well-balanced hammer is required. Solid construction prevents head loosening and reduces downtime for repairs or replacements. Polished finish gives each hammer a unique texture and subtle color variation so each piece looks distinctive. Key benefits Durable materials: hard steel (carbon steel) head and a solid wood handle for long service life. Secure handle attachment: black adhesive (glue) treatment firmly embeds the wooden handle in the head to resist loosening or falling out. Practical head shape: octagonal head design helps prevent the hammer from rolling when set down. Two common weight choices for task-specific control: a 450 g model and a 0.5 kg (500 g) specification. Function and performance Hard carbon steel head provides consistent impact performance and wear resistance for repeated striking tasks. Solid wood handle delivers a comfortable grip and shock absorption while the embedded bonding prevents separation under normal use. Polished surface finish is functional and aesthetic—each hammer shows slight texture and color variation from the polishing process. Typical applications Woodworking and joinery: driving and removing nails, assembling furniture, and fitting joints. General carpentry and construction tasks: framing, light demolition, and fastening where a compact, reliable hammer is needed. Light metalworking and fitting: tapping chisels, punches, and shaping small metal parts where a hard-steel striking face is appropriate.
