Designed and built for heavy-duty use, this hammer features a 16 lb. forged alloy steel head with striking ends hardened to 50-55 HRC to withstand years of repeated impacts without deforming.

The durability is Estwing quality for sure. The overall design is good BUT the balance is a bit awkward. I would definitely recommend it Vs. other options. At the end of the day the durability needs to be priority considering it's going to be abused in demo in most applications or stake driving. Performance in these areas are 10 out of 10

Who would have guessed that it's cheaper to get a sledgehammer shipped to you than to buy it locally... I was going to get this at a brick and mortar chain down the road, but it was TWICE the cost of what I could order it for here. Not too crazy about Estwing offshoring some of their products, but when all is said and done it's a nicely made product and gets the job done.

Shipping took longer than estimated. But the product is as good a quality and settles into a price point perfectly for a long-handle sledge under 10lbs. Will be perfect for splitting logs with a wedge or driving an axe head through a cut. A maul would be better for firewood-only jobs, but this can be used elsewhere as any sledge. Handle and head seem indestructible. Would recommend.

Build quality is excellent, size was perfect for what I needed with weight balance being excellent. I used this specifically for putting in a tree support stake and it was perfect for the job and easy to use. This will be a great addition to my toolbox.

This is a nice heavy Sledge! Grips are non-slip in wet conditions as well. Light handle allows for more higher swing and control.

Discovered Estwing on Amazon and have begun regularly buying their products as a result of their excellent performance and value.Bought this sledge to replace a traditional, hickory-handle, sledgehammer that finally splintered into pieces after years of use.The Estwing 8 lb. sledge has just been fantastic. We are using this hammer to split heavy oak for a wood stove and the hammer is a noticeable improvement after years of using a hickory handle, also with an 8 lb. head.The Estwing transfers less force/vibration to the hand, seems to require less work/force to split the >8" rounds, and when there are misses and wedge strikes, while the rubber around the sledge head gets torn up, the fiberglass handle underneathe just sheds the hits, so we expect to have this hammer for many, many years, whereas a hickory handle would have likely already been destroyed.Finally, the cost of one of these Estwing hammers off Amazon is about $10.00 cheaper, minimum, compared to our local retailer's offerings. And free shipping. That's incredible. No idea how those big box home improvement stores manage to stay open.And all of our Estwing tools were not made in China. Another huge plus.

Wow, I wasn't sure actually of its delivery, because it is hardly available in stock and when available this 1.1kg variant was the only Estwing Hammer at reasonable price. I am so glad to see it got delivered to me. I can't stop admiring this sledge hammer, so perfect and unbelievable. Thankyou very much seller. Plz keep other items of Estwing available at reasonble prices like this always.
