Pro IsoCore 4 lb Club Hammer (14") - Drilling Hammer with Wedged Demolition and Driving Face, Shock-Absorbing Grip - Construction and Home Improvement Tools

I'm pretty sure a contractor took off with my old one, which was of another brand and just OK. I decided I wanted an even better one to replace it, with a larger strike face and a tough wedge for multi purpose, along with a solid grip and shock absorption, and this one delivers along with good balance. I have a long-handled sledge with a similar wedge on the opposite end, but it's not always practical to use. The larger strike face makes this easier to contact what you're hammering or pounding, and at at 4lbs, it does much of the work on its own. It's also good for popping boards w/o having to pull nails. The wedge works great breaking up even thick masonry, and is effective for general deconstruction. Just make sure you wear good eye protection and perhaps even a protective facemask when working on masonry. After putting it to good work it didn't even scratch the surfaces. I don't mind paying more for solid tools. I got mine for under $30, which I thought was reasonable for this professionally designed and built tool. This is is definitely not your typical Chinese offering. I expect it to last the rest of my life, if I can keep it from being pilfered. If something changes I'll update my review.

This is well balanced. Do let it stay outside, after a few days rust will immediately develop, especially if you live in a normally very humid or wet climate area. I've had it over an year and it is still going strong. The hammer head packs a good punch for it's size. It is a great tool because, so far I don't have to resorted to a larger sledge hammer. It does so well, I just purchased a second hammer

Great small hammer that packs a punch! Really works well and like the fact that both sides are different. Pretty good vibration reduction, just be careful you don't hit your finger while you are using it.

Looks fancy, and helps me break down bricks pottery and slate for landscaping.

It’s hard to find a decent straight pein hammer, but this is one, it is built well with quality materials, I use this hammer on almost every knife that I build, there are more expensive, better hammers out there, but for the price you can’t beat this one

I bought the Fiskars Pro IsoCore 3 lb Club Hammer specifically to smash up cinder blocks and rocks, and it works perfectly! This hammer is powerful and delivers exactly the force needed to get the job done. The weight is just right for heavy-duty tasks, and the IsoCore shock control system really helps reduce the vibration, making it more comfortable to use for extended periods. I’m very happy with how well it performs, and it’s now an essential tool in my collection. If you need a reliable hammer for tough demolition work, this is a great choice!

It's fine. Never ended up finding a use for it. I use 2lb and 3lb far more.

I have demo'd an old deck and have pounded some stakes into clay with this little beauty, as well as general persuasion. The weight, balance, and ergonomics of this sledge are fantastic. Though I'm 180lb man I prefer lighter hammers and this one is a real pleasure to use. Speed x Mass = Force. I've put it through the ringer and it has some good character and I expect it to last my lifetime. It's not a traditional sledge but it feels good and is a pocked boom boom. Buy one.

Love it!

重さ大きささいこうです、

Bonita, material de excelente qualidade, ótimo acabamento, peso na medida e bem balanceado, além de realmente funcionar a absorção de impacto. Com a marreta convencional meu braço cansava bem mais rápido e sentia mais dores no final do dia, com essa da Fiskars consigo usar por um tempo muito maior e não sinto tantas dores nas articulações após uso mais longo.

Only problem with these is that mates pinch them. They are ideal size and shape for many farm jobs

Nikel top.
