      Is this a BPA free handle? I just bought a Pittsburgh 24 oz. Fiberglass Framing/Rip Hammer. It has a BPA filled handle.

        If I buy this hammer and miss the nail and mash my thumb will it hurt worst than the more expensive 28 oz. Hammer? Stupid is as Stupid does.

        It will only hurt where the protruding parts of the milled face hit.

            Magnet is a great feature!
            The Milwaukee 20 oz. Smooth Face Hammer has quickly become one of my favorite hammers in my tool collection. The 20 oz. head provides a great balance of power and control, making it effective for everything from framing and general construction to smaller projects that require a little more precision. The handle is comfortable to hold and does a good job reducing vibration, which makes a noticeable difference during extended use. The hammer feels well-balanced in the hand, allowing for accurate strikes without feeling overly heavy or awkward. I also appreciate the smooth face, which helps prevent marring finished surfaces while still delivering plenty of driving power. The build quality is excellent, and it feels like a tool that will hold up to years of jobsite use. Overall, this is a durable, comfortable, and well-designed hammer that performs exactly as expected. Whether you’re a professional or a DIYer, it’s a reliable tool that gets the job done and is well worth having in your toolbox.

              Face is soft
              Bought this hammer three days ago. The hammer face is already marred up. Only used on nails and a few lumber swings

                Great Milwaukee 21 oz. Milled Face Poly Handle Hammer
                The Milwaukee 21 oz. Milled Face Poly Handle Hammer is a top notch hammer. The milled face is perfect for not allowing the struck nails from slipping as they are struck. The top of the head has a notch with a small magnet to hold nails steady as the hammer strikes the nail home. The handle has a firm non-slip grip and is 14 inches long to allow for a lot of striking power.

                A very nice, comfortable hammer
                A very nice hammer. It is very comfortable to use even for a full day of use. It has a 21 ounce head with a milled face to reduce slips. The handle is fiberglass and has a rubber coating. It is contoured on the end to reduce hand fatigue. The claw is thin and aids in nail removal. the entire head is coated to hopefully reduce rust over time. All in all a well designed hammer at a nice weight.

                Excellent Hammer!
                This is really a great hammer. It is weighted so nicely. Has the power you need, without being unnecessarily heavy. The handle is long, giving the user extra leverage and power. The face of the hammer is textured, keeping you from sliding off nail heads. At the top of the face there is a notch which can be helpful when you "load" a nail for hammering. The claw is sleek and super easy to remove nails.

                Great Hammer
                This hammer has great balance and feels sturdy in your hand. The hammer is well balanced and impacts the nail with solid force. There's very little vibration upon impact and the 21 ounce weight is perfect for driving common nails. The hammer has a handy notch with a magnet that holds a nail and allows you to drive the nail with the first strike. This is a great hammer and I fully recommend.

                Good hammer, even if a bit overpriced.
                Decent hammer, a bit overpriced even when on sale. Nail setter is nice to have, and it looks great (main reason I went with the Milwaukee).
