I really like this hammer. One negative is the curved handle doesn't slip in and out of my hammer loop and nicely as it could. Other than that it is as shock free as you can find. I recommended it to the other carpenters on my crew.

I was tired of using a 28oz Estwing in the concrete formwork business. Another great hammer but to heavy for me and tendonitis was setting in - ouch! A salesman at a nearby Home Depot introduced me to this model and it is truly a joy to use this hammer. A must have item I would say.
