Best hammer value in the world. [Posted on 2005-06-05]
Until Douglas hammers came along, this hammer was without peer for framing and general carpentry. And it still is in the value department, as Douglas costs 2 1/2 times as much.
Caveat: I've never been a fan of the 'California' style, fat, squat head. Or curved, 'axe' style handles. Or macho 32 oz. heads for framing. Or mega bucks titanium that you're not supposed to smack a cat's paw with. I prefer the feel of a wood handle, but (except for the Douglas design) they break to easily to be practical.
You can yank and reef on the FS999ML's fiberglass handle all day, and it's the nicest feeling non-wood handle I've used. The hammer's weight, balance and feel is near perfect. Not much else to say. Unless you already know your favorite hammer is something else, this is the one to get. Peace.
