Estwing make revered tools – these are forged from a single piece of steel. This means that the head can never fly off Estwing hammers. They're the product of a family company near Chicago, USA.
In the USA, award winning apprentices get these as prizes, and use them for their entire working life.
The Weight Forward Hammer is a radical. The combination of head design and curved handle puts 70% of weight forward of centre making for a light hammer with big clout - Olive Oyls can now swing like Popeyes.
The Estwing company's president got the idea for the shape whilst casting when trout fishing (go figure).
- Handmade in the USA
- world's strongest handles
- forged steel head
* The 17oz is the last batch ever to be produced because Estwing is focusing on the 21oz.
