Customer Reviews:

Good hammer with less than satisfactory grip. [Posted on 2008-11-29]
I really like this hammer a lot except for one crucial component. If you look, the base of the handle is slanted forward. When holding the hammer towards the end of the handle, this shape causes the handle to rub uncomfortably in palm of your hand. If you're just doing a quick job it's no biggie. However, if you're going to be working with it all day, you might end up with a blister. Obviously, Stanley put more thought into the aesthetics of the handle rather than the feel and functionality of it. Other than the handle though, it's a great hammer. I really like the shape and functionality of the head. It's got a nice sized striking area and the nail holder at the top is handy. The claw is nicely shaped as well. The Anti Vibe handle is also very nice. All in all, I really, really wish I could use this as my everyday hammer. Unfortunately the end of the handle sucks. I wish they had stuck with the handle shape they used with their other Antivibe hammers. They're actually very comfortable.
