ESTWING Sure Strike Hammer - 20 oz Rip Claw Hammer with Smooth Face & Carbon Fiber Handle - SSCF20S

This hammer is really reliable and well-balanced, making it a great tool for various projects. The grip is comfortable, reducing hand fatigue during prolonged use. It's durable and seems like it will last a long time, though it's a bit heavier than I expected for its size. It's built solid.

Good hammer. Feels nice and well weighted

Now that I'm shooting screws instead of nailing things together, naturally I decided to replace my 45 year old hammer. This is nicely balanced, comfortable to hold and well made. I'm sure it'll outlast me.

I know that most people think a hammer is a hammer. for the most part, yes that’s correct. But for those who know not all hammers are created equal, you will appreciate the fact that this hammer is under $30.00. The reason, for those who don’t know is most hammers don’t feel like this one does when swinging, when hitting, just holding it, or when it’s hanging in the tool belt. Most hammers that have this quality are at least twice as much and easily much more. Swinging this hammer is like using an 18oz. I haven’t felt that before in a “home store” hammer. Ones in you buy for 20- 30 bucks at Home Depot, Lowe’s, Menards, or the hardware stores like Sutherland, ace hardware and northern tool. This hammer also strikes nails and staples in direct straight contact line and rebounds minimally and straight. In the past I’ve had hammers that felt awkward to swing making it hard to aim, and when you made contact, the hammer wanted to twist your wrist adding unnecessary physical exertion. Yes the claim can be maid that I wasn’t hitting the nail or staples directly, but I did test this theory by doing a drop hit test and the hammer naturally wanted to twist counter click wise and I’m right handed so to the outside. Any way this hammer makes me happy that there are companies still making quality affordable tools and not skimping on product quality just to keep a specific price point. Well done estwing well done

Rock solid with perfect balance. As an electrician I need a reasonable heavy hammer with a good side face for tight spaces. This hammer rocks it and sinks nails and straps with ease. Best hammer I have used, and I have stilletto hammers

Really nice so far - it hasn’t seen a ton of use yet but my initial impression is positive. Good weight, comfortable handle, solid construction.

I've been in the construction industry in one form or another for more than 40 years, and I'll be damned if this isn't the best hammer I've ever swung. It looks like any other hammer, but when you pick it up and take your first swing you realize the perfect balance and how comfortable it is to hold. This hammer makes it easy to "hit the nail on the head" every time.

Beautiful hammer. The handle feels very good in the hand. Nice balance. Typical of Estwing.

Heavy for a woman weighting 105 lbs.

If you're looking for a dependable, well-balanced hammer that won’t cost a fortune but still bears the Estwing name, this is a solid bet. Whether for woodworking, general renovations, or outdoor projects, its smooth-face head and rip claw combo is versatile. While it lacks the one-piece forged construction of higher-end Estwing versions, it more than makes up for that with affordability and performance. Highly recommended for DIY enthusiasts, weekend warriors, and anyone looking for great hammer value.

Un martillo muy cómodo y con un atractivo diseño. Esperaba recibir una herramienta fabricada en USA, lo que llegó estaba hecho en Taiwán. A pesar de eso, me gustó la calidad y el pulido del metal. Hace muchísimos años tuve un hacha de Estwing, estaba genial. Ahora que me encontré estos martillos, tuve que hacer la compra de inmediato. Tenía una duda sobre el cabo, ¿es realmente fibra de carbono o sería un error en la publicación y en verdad era fibra de vidrio? Resulta que en la página web de EstWing también lo especifican como fibra de carbono. Eso también me agradó.

Good hammer, a balance feel to it like all estwing hammers. Its carbon fibre core handle works well in canceling the hammers vibrations . If they can use carbon fibre on bicycle frames and to fighter aircraft Wings you would think it would hold up on a hammer? Only time will tell. It’s a good hammer to work with. P.S there is different qualities of carbon fiber. I am just hoping it is a solid core carbon fiber handle not a hollow one ?

Beautifully finished hammer at bargain price, feels great in the hand.
