Fantastic quality. One piece of fine steel with an excellent handle that is solid and comfortable to use. Great for general use around the home or for trim carpentry where a heavy hammer is not necessary. "Made in America", sealed the deal. You cannot go wrong with an Estwing.

Bought to replace identical one I lost on site. Have owned the one I lost on site for several years. Considered buying a cheaper brand but I’d not be happy with it. Screwfix price cheap as I could find and in stock what’s not to like

Bought this to replace a leather handled 16oz Estwing (which always seem to fail at the plastic inserts at the top of the grip). Thought I'd go for the blue rubber handled type this time. Already have a 20oz version of this, but find it a bit heavy for general use. The 16 oz is just right, very well balanced and a joy to use. The claw works really well and will pick up nail heads that are really close to the timber. In my opinion you can't beat a traditional style Estwing claw hammer for quality. They're extremely well made and will deliver years of good service. Got this one at a keen price, so very pleased. A great buy.

I have used Estwing for 30 plus years. Only reason to buy a new one is because you lost it or a gift. This was bought as a gift. Should last a long the young man a long time.
The straight claw is more versatile. You could frame with the straight claw or do finish work. But if the curved claw is your jam then this is the hammer they will bury you with (because it's a lifetime tool). Don't mess up, buy a real hammer.
Pretty straight forward. The steel looks good, i like the way the rubber material of the handle meets the steel. Feels well made. The head is just a little larger than I expected, which isn't bad, more striking area. Overall, seems like it will do exactly what it's supposed to.
Renewing a old estwing 20oz hammer with lighter 16oz version, only thing that has changed in logo on handle. Still well balanced hammer on the market in my opinion I am 65 now and tried a few manufacturers products over the years.
Anyone who has been any trade that puts nails into wood will tell you that Estwing Hammers are absolutely the best there is. They do the job and last buy one and retire with it still in you pouch, I had two stolen several years back, and three more burned up in our house fire, or I wouldn't even be in the market. They were all twenty years old or better. I don't know about wherer I live now but where I used to live there was an old man that would re-mill the faces of them after uou beat them flat. I set here and tried to think of something bad and couldn't.
This is a heavier 28 ounce Framing Hammer which is sort of heavy but then again you are supposed to let the hammer do the work not your muscle. They make a lighter 22 ounce size but this weight helps to drive nails with fewer "swings". This is not the hammer for a kitchen drawer. Can it be used for demolition work? Absolutely, along with a wrecking bar and some demo screwdrivers. Will probably last a lifetime until a "tool thief" comes across it.
This is my favourite Hammer to use for framing. I have been using the Estwing 28 oz for the past 25 years. I usually get about 7 to 8 years performance out of one before the handle wears down too much. The one thing I have found with this and my last one is the material the handle is made of is softer than my hammers before and seems to wear a bit faster. But it does have a nicer feel with the softer handle. This one should last me for the remainder of my framing days.
