Customer Reviews for Estwing 32 oz. Steel Drilling Hammer

I’m sure it’s great, given all of the positive reviews. Just don’t miss your target because the rest of it is dipped in 1/4” of cheap plastic. Still usable, but there are better options. This hammer was about 2 months old.

I've used this 2 LB hammer for many different projects over the last few years, from cutting Belgian blocks with a cold chisel to breaking up rocks to driving in stakes and even orange snow markers. The project pic below was to cut the large rock so that I could continue the Belgian block around my raised bed garden. The handle is very comfortable to use over a long time & the rubber handle absorbs a lot of the shock from the impact.

What's to say - it's a hammer... But it's solid, and well made. The handle is very comfortable - rubber grip and absorbs some vibration/shock so easy to use all day long. The bright blue and yellow colors make it pretty easy to spot on the job site - so that's pretty handy too!

I banged in some medium size fence poles. It worked well for the task, short swing medium weight, non-slip handle, maintained a good grip in the rain.

I have raised garden beds and try growing vegetables. I was finding when the plants would sprout, the birds would eat the sprouts before the plants could grow. So I got some 1x2's and put them on the corners of the beds, then spread mesh netting over the posts like a canopy to deter the birds. I used the Estwing Drilling Hammer to pound the posts in. I like how it's head is secure. (I had an older mallet that's head would fall off---Yikes!) also how it's smooth head didn't stress the wood. I'm sure I will find other uses for this.

The hammer is great. Estwing is great. Home Depo no longer stocks them. Go to Lowe’s for Estwing. Home Depot is turning into the Milwaukee store.

Handle fits hand perfectly and is not hard to handle. Put together very well

Good solid demo hammer in a small package. Also great for splitting kindling with a Kindling Cracker.

No assembly required. Worked as expected.

Great hammer very well balanced

I needed to cut a few paver stones in half and this hammer, along with a brick chisel, did the job in just a few whacks.

Hammer way. Great tool
