Best Hammer Ever!!! [Posted on 2005-09-26]
This is the best hammer I have ever used. It is lightweight and better than I expected. I would reccommend this hammer to everyone!

Perfect swing [Posted on 2007-07-06]
If you've gotta bang in nails all day long, this will do it. Beautifully balanced, the perfect angled handle, and it's Vaughan quality. Enough said.

I'm on my 2nd one, now. The first lasted 4 years, doing a LOT of framing, until it disappeared out of my truck. A can of hot pink spray paint should keep this one from disappearing...

Best. Hammer. Ever. [Posted on 2007-08-15]
Light, but packs a punch. I can frame all day and not feel a thing. Great hammer!

lightweight [Posted on 2007-08-19]
nice shiny blue hammer. I did have a vaughn axe-handled ti-tech 16 oz which i loved but snapped the handle and couldnt get the handles in tight enough so i bought the 19 oz. the heads smaller and the magnet nail set isnt designed as well but otherwise a very comfortable hammer to swing all day.

Awesome Hammer [Posted on 2008-05-05]
I love this hammer! It's the perfect length for me, and at 19oz, it is not so heavy as to cause arm fatigue. I've been swinging the same hammer without the nail set at work for a year now. I've put this hammer through hell, using it for demolition, nail pulling, etc. It's taken many direct hits to the handle and still holds up. It's tough as hell. The magnetic nail set works great for all types nails, but the best attribute is the curved hatchet design of the handle. you can hold the hammer high on the handle for more precise control in tight space, or you can hold at the base for long swinging blows to drive home a nail in one shot. Both positions feel natural in the hand and in motion. When you hold this hammer in your hand, you know you're holding a high quality tool. The blue glossy paint is catchy and the waffle head is very gripping. For 35$ you cannot find a better hammer, you just can't.
