 Best Hammer Ever November 17, 2007

I've had this hammer for four years and like some of the others my head screw came loose all the time. I added a couple drops of Lock-Tite and never had the problem again. I had elbow problems for some time and wanted to go to a lighter hammer. I had always used wood handled hammers which eventually always broke and wanted the durability of metal. This had me worried for my elbow but my solution was to wrap the handle with tennis racket tape which absorbs each blow and also protects the handle as a bonus. What I have now is a healthy elbow and increased hammer speed. I love framing with this hammer and it is worth every penny.

I find that Stiletto is a lot of hype. As for the whole driving force, is a bunch of BS! I literally have to swing this hammer faster and harder than my tradition 25 oz hickory handle. The fact is if you have elbow pain you are either A: using the wrong weight or B: not utilizing pneumatic nailers. Most of the time its "A" cause of tough guy egos. "I can pound a 16d in one swing with my 30 oz framer." Yeah, after work you rub your elbow and complain of pain. You should be spending the $250 on a nail gun or new style palm nailer. Work smarter, not harder. I am giving this an extra star for the magnetic nail set and face change features. Otherwise, I would give the stiletto 2 stars.

I have used Stiletto hammers for years, and always loved them, I had a hard time justifying the price for the Ti-bone, but after a month of driving (and pulling) 16's I have to say this is the finest tool I have ever owned. It has all the advantaged of an old school Estwing (nearly indistructable) but none of the disadvantages (hard as hell on your elbow and heavy)It drives sinkers in 2 swats easily and it is easier to control than almost any hammer I ever tried. The magnetic nail starter will make placing those hard to reach nails a breeze. The steel faces are replaceable, a nice feature.
All in all an expensive (but well worth it) and wonderfully crafted tool for the professional framer. You will never need another hammer again.

I have had this hammer for about a year. I used to own one of the older yellow handle ones they make but I have a carpenter that works for me that really wanted one. Stiletto stoped making the yellow one so rather that get him the new better hammer with the nail puller on it I got it and gave him my old one. I love this hammer!!! it is light and solid and strong. It has shown almost no wear except where the rubber meets the handle at the top is frayed some from heavy usage. I do a lot of framing and this thing you can nail all day with and not feel like you arm is going to fall of. It hits just as hard as those steel hammers too. If you do this for a living you will love it so its worth it. But if you don't do this regulary its too expensive and nice to be in storage. You will also take it to lunch with you when you go on break. Just because you don't want the thought of some one else messin with it. A true carpenter uses his hammer like a samurai uses his sword. You develope a bond with it and learn it. This thing will not let you down.
