Oh, baby. Now this is a hammer. A magnificent 17 inches from head to toe, this tool with its ergonomic, patent-pending handle just begs to be gripped. The wallop you deliver with this beauty is easily on par with that of a 24-ounce steel hammer, but you'll be swinging this one long after everybody else gives up. Titanium is the key--lightweight, but virtually indestructible. A twist of the Allen wrench, and you can change out the milled waffle head for a smooth face, but either way, the magnetic nail starter will come in handy. Okay, yes, that's three digits between the dollar sign and the decimal point, but in this case, you get what you pay for. This hammer's primo. Use it and you'll toss the rest. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

4.0 out of 5 stars Boss of All, March 2, 2003

This is one excellent piece of work. It is very high dollar but I bit the bullet because of some wrist and hand problems I started to have. SInce this is my livlehood and I have a family to support, I could not afford to come down with any career threatening injuries, ones that I could realistically avoid anyway. I have the yelow handle, ax style version and I love it. This company needs to make a smaller version for remolding but I'm in to them now with this one and won't be buying anymore hammers EVER. The price is the one reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars but if you can "swing it", this hammer is worth the money.

5.0 out of 5 stars I Love This Hammer, December 14, 2002

I realize most people wouldn't buy this hammer because of it's cost. I got mine as a gift. After using it for the last few months, I would buy one in a heartbeat. I have read a few people talk about the hammer being as expensive as a nailgun and that is true. Everyone has their priorities though. Mine happens to be staying healthy and this hammer will help. I would like my body to age well :-)

I can justify this hammer a million ways. Here is what I love about the hammer for those who are reading this review to find out about the hammer and not my justifications.

1) It's light. I don't have extra weight in my nail bags. I was amazed at how much lighter my bags felt. I used a 24oz Dalluge axe handled hammer that I loved. I don't get tired hand nailing. My wrist never hurts and neither does my elbow.
2)The grip is very comfortable. I had ordered the axe handled version but got the straight handle by accident. I'm glad I got it. I love this handle better.
3)Length of the hammer. I like a hammer that is "taller". I've heard that Stilleto is coming out with a "shorter" version, but I like the length of this hammer
4)You can replace the face. You can replace the face when it gets worn or you can put a smooth face on it.
5)Won't break any handles.

I love this hammer. You will NOT regret buying this hammer.

By the way, I can still sink a 16d in one strike, so don't let anyone tell you a light hammer is for girls or that it can't drive as well as a heavier hammer. I would last longer against a guy with a heavy hammer and still sink 'em in one.

5.0 out of 5 stars the only hammer to own if you are a pro, November 20, 2003

I've been a pro carpenter for more than 20 years. I have had scads of hammers over those years from estwing (ouch my elbow) to 32 oz. vaugns to all sorts of other designs. Since i have gotten the tibone, there will never be another hammer for me. I am ordering another one today for some one on my crew and that will make three in our company. Others will get them too I am sure.
