It sounds stupid, but this really is the best hammer I’ve ever used. Well balanced, flat top edge for easy use close to corners and a very comfortable grip. Worth every penny.

EXCELLENT tool but expensive---nevertheless--without doubt this will last a lifetime--a little larger than I expected but the weight and balance is superb--so all in all I would not hesitate to recommend this tool. If you are a person who appreciates quality then this is for you but if you just want a general lightweight hammer there are many out there without having to pay for the name and will do the job just as good-- so think on.

Brilliant, simple. Lightweight, small, easy to use in tight spaces, the flat top makes it particularly good in tight spaces like lofts when cable clipping.

I was in need of a new hammer to replace one where the plastic handle kept sliding off the metal shaft.My son had recently bought one of these, and he sent me a picture of it. I liked the look of it!When it arrived, I was not disappointed with it. It looks good, it feels good, and it feels like it should last a long time.What I'm not quite sure about is the striking face (I haven't used the hammer yet). As I look at it in relation to the hammer shaft, I have a gut feeling that the face of the hammer is about 2° out of alignment with what I feel would be a natural swing/strike ie if the striking face was bent inwards about 2° towards the forearm, it would have a more 'flat' striking face offered to the nail etc.I will give it a go when I am at work and ammend my review if I am wrong...Update: I have now tried out the hammer and I still think that I am right. That 2° tilt would, I think, make a difference. I do think that it's a good hammer and I will be keeping it. It would be interesting if Wiha tried out my idea and what it would feel like?

This hammer should not not be selected as a general duty hammer as it is not heavy enough, but as an electrician I purchased this hammer for installing intruder, telecoms and data cables etc and should be ideal for this purpose. Provided most people realise most electricians carry several hammers, I have the following, a 2.5 pound club hammer, a 20 ounce Estwing ripping claw hammer and a10 ounce Warrington hammer. This actual hammer will directly replace the Warrington hammer as it cannot retract/ remove cable clips, hence this hammer will be ideal in attic spaces and under floors etc. As long as the layman understands this hammer is designed for specific purposes and will function perfectly on these applications. If a person is only going to select one hammer to cover all aspects of general diy in the home this hammer is probably not the ideal option.If on the other hand an electrician etc is looking for a hammer for light duty work then this hammer would be a good selection as the hammer head is well designed for allowing access for clipping cables in tight corners and the ripping claw is an excellent design for removing clips, removing facings and trunking lid etc.In general I’m pleased with the performance of this tool although I haven’t used it a great deal but when used it feels well balanced with a comfortable grip.

A fantastic light weight and comfortable hammer, perfect for small jobs that don't require one bashing the hell out of something.
