Groz Heavy Duty 8lb Sledge Hammer with 12-Inch Indestructible Handle | Hard Face Steel Head 52 HRC | Steel Locking Plate | Hi-Visibility Head | Vulcanized Rubber Handle (34522), copper head

Excelente marro bebé. Es algo pesado, pero funciona perfecto, muy resistente. Yo lo uso para llevar junto con una cuña. El inconveniente es que el precio es alto.

It is what it is! Very -- sledgey! I recommend it. It was a riot how carefully it was packed! Wouldn't want to risk breaking this indestructible hammer! :-D photo below.

I almost gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because I think the cost could come down a little, but taking into consideration this is a tool that will likely last for most if not all of the rest of my life and possibly beyond, the extra cost spread out over the time that the hammer will last is negligible. Additionally, the time it saves me from regularly replacing broken handles that couldn't withstand the force I exert is priceless. The main reason I bought this was because I got tired of replacing handles all the time. I opted for the 14lb head instead of the 10lb that I had originally planned to get, and I have no regrets. I've been using it regularly for the past few weeks to pound a diamond-shaped wood-splitting wedge into large tree rounds. After a couple medium hits to secure the wedge in the wood, one good hit is all it takes. The rubber handle absorbs/distributes the strike very well; my hands don't feel as much of it as they did with a wooden handled sledge. I did have one miss when I was delivering a series of hits to separate a branch from the trunk of the tree round, which caused the round to bounce off of the chopping block a little and become unbalanced while I was bringing the hammer down. The result was a very small blemish on the handle near the head, but nothing likely to affect the structural integrity of the tool. I am curious to see how the rubber handle holds up over a long time. I will report here if I experience any issues with this sledgehammer, especially within the 12 month warranty period. So far, so good!

4 stars for misleading length. Says "16 in. handle" in the listing and right on the hammer itself. The handle is actually just under 14" So if that matters to you now you know. It mattered to me because I wanted the extra length for 2 hand usage. Otherwise it's seems like a great hammer and good feel. 5.5lbs total with head and handle. Mine came with chips (damage) to the orange powder coating on the head so that was a bummer. I would have no problem with that cause it's gonna be beat up anyway. Wish they would just update the listing so that it accurately reflects the proper length of the sledgehammer in question.

Pretty well made! Heavy duty! I put it to work and I can tell.. it is worth the money I paid for it! Recommended 100%
