Introduction Faithfull hickory handle 16oz Faithfull fibreglass handle 20oz Stanley FatMax XL 20oz Buck and Hickman Dragon hammer 20oz Spear & Jackson Rippa 20oz Draper expert 16oz Review Archive
Although this hammer has a heavier head, the lightweight fibreglass shaft reduces the overall weight of the hammer and it felt no heavier in the hand than the16oz hammer with a hickory handle. Performed exceptionally well when levering nails from timber, not slipping once. Personally, I felt the rubber grip was a little rough in the hand, which may cause chafing if the hammer is used continuously for a long period.
