My name is Dan and I have an addiction. And it's Martinez hammers. I have 2 M4s, 1 M1 and the M79 sledge. I love em all! Great video!

Great review! I had used the wooden handled framing hammers in the past but switched to the steel hammers. The wood handles aren't the best for pulling nails, ended up snapping a couple of the handles. The curved claw hammers work better for pulling nails but if you carry a small block of wood (2x4) in your pouch/pocket you can use that to get the leverage to pull nails with the straight claws. I'm retired but wouldn't mind getting one of the titanium hammers.

Great presentation! Done with authority. No framing hammers on my jobs either!

[@drdecks]

Right on!

Great video. These are not my father‘s hammers. Did practical come in since. Lots of fun. Really enjoyed. I’m probably never going to own a hammer like this is I am a DIY homeowner. But it was fun to watch, nevertheless.

For some reason my fallback has always been the Stiletto 14 oz Wood curved handle. Tried titanium hammers, but I think the wood handle is superior

[@allthegoodstuff2091]

Curved handle martinez. Carry it backwards in your hammer sleeve. They tuck in further. Less likely to bump something and they slide in and out super quick 🔨 try it it’s the best thing

must be cold there. I always enjoy grown men wearing hoodies inside

I bought a stiletto TB2 3 years ago after being pigheaded for years with my estwing hammers, thinking there’s no need for those expensive titanium hammers. I will NEVER go back to a regular hammer. I noticed a huge difference in the first few swings of my new stiletto. I’m soon gunna upgrade to the newer TB3.
Don’t knock them til you try one!

[@sataniccrow2607]

I’d recommend the tibone over the tb3 just for the replacable grip

[@Davethewall1620]

How does the boss full titanium do with the diamondback hammer sleeve? Was curious since it’s titanium on the bottom if it would do better than the stiletto or Martinez

[@scottaddison8071]

Plumb hammer is the best

[@pekkakuosmanen65]

Vaughan or Rocket 24 Oz are best.

[@user-ih6ss5qt2m]

Estwing is all I have. For 31 years. My forearms are large, chick's love it. I also have air tools. Overpriced tools make you soft.

[@disqusrubbish5467]

Hahaha. Enjoyed your post.

[@Davey768]

Estwing is probably all you can afford.

[@disqusrubbish5467]

With a wooden handle (I do it with any hammer) you get the nail in the claw, but then tip the hammer sideways. Out it comes. You don't really need a "side puller" feature.
And for me - just my opinion - I don't need a $200 hammer. Lighter, sure, just buy a lighter hammer.

Trini Lopez ,if I had a hammer, r.i.p

Quick tip. If you really like wooden handle hammers, and want a thumb indent, just take a file, and sandpaper to it, and go to town. You can customize it to your liking by size, depth, and shape, depending on your preferences. I still prefer my 22oz, and 28oz Estwings, Vaughan, Hart, and Milwaukee to wooden handle hammers, but that’s just my preference. I’m not a professional carpenter (just do it as a hobby) but if I was, I’d get a custom Titanium Martinez. The fact that you can change out the head, handle, or grip seems to make it the last hammer you’ll ever have to buy.
