Super helpful. Thanks
Thanks!
Hola , que tal soy de Argentina. Necesito conseguir ese martillo con agárre de madera y donde me puedo comprarlas. Necesito ese favor . Saludos a usted
All these options yet no ball peen line. Wow, they're missing out on a huge market opportunity in the fabrication world. I'd buy one tomorrow.
"air grip" is what us electricians call "cold shrink" as opposed to "heat shrink" which is more commonly used to insulate splices.
I am very tempted to buy a t bone
having worked in a factory that made tools from titanium, i dont understand why a company charges such super high price for these. the cost to make these is not that much more than a steel hammer. The greed i see here is horrible. the cost of titanium is not that bad anymore. really, the price difference should be only be 5.00 to 15.00 dollars more per hammer compared to a regular steel hammer.
They need to cover the upfront costs first. Mass production also lowers the cost of goods. Most people would not buy a hammer that costs 3x more for any reason. Only people in the construction trades will buy this hammer. Companies who make these hammers can only make a limited batch so they can't reduce the price as much if they could make large batches of these.
Yes but there would be a company that would come in and make more money by charging less... so there's a reason somewhere, and unless there's a monopoly, the prices are right for the product.
I'm curious as to why you would need a smoothe face "framing" hammer. I love stiletto tools. My hickory 14 Oz doesn't work great for demo, I've had to replace the handle 3 times on it but it swings beautifully sinking nails. My titanium polyurethane 14oz works great for everything but I prefer the oldschool hickory handles for comfort and style;) thanks for the vid
Usually for when building something like a deck or anything that will be visible and not covered with drywall
In Australia milled is not desirable at all, a regular carpenter does everything from framing to finish
I prefer smooth face because when you miss it won’t tear the shit out of your thumb
I’ve been a framing carpenter for 10+ years and always use smooth head. Everyone who I’ve worked with has used smooth as well. I good carpenter doesn’t need more grip on a hammer head not to mention it looks like shit everytime you leave a mark and where most house I build I’ll gram and go right into exterior trim and sidding
I started framing with a long handled 28 oz framing hammer I have the curved 16 oz as I’m a finish carpenter now. I’m used to a long handled hammer it feels right
If you buy a fiberglass hammer and the handle eventually breaks, could you replace it with a standard hickory handle?
Honestly not sure if you would be able to do that.
yes you can, i bought the fiberglass version but replaced the handle with a curved hickory sitlletto handle, it feels lighter and i like the swing better
@@J2Shaythanks!
Most stilettos have a hammer horn ring that's annoying.
Try forging your titanium hammer like bob hart did to polish them chrome.
I've heard some bad things about Stiletto hammers, particularly with the handles breaking easily and the head chipping badly.
I just use a 20 oz estwing and become stronger as i use it.
It’s about longevity. Just because you can become stronger doesn’t mean anything. You are wearing your joints out. Work smarter not harder…
14oz titanium hammer is a gimmick. Its the long handle that adds leverage. Not the material of the head.
I already know what I need to know about titanium hammers, and that is that they suck totally.
Titanium is softer, less dense, and weaker in compression, shear, tensile, and flexural strength.
A 14oz steel head hits harder than a 14oz titanium head because it’s density is harder, 4.5 to 7.8 g/cm3. Plus the surface is harder so your hammer won’t deform unlike these titanium hammers
But what’s gonna define which hits harder , is the swing speed you apply with each hammer each strike
You sound correct, but you’re actually not. Density has little to do with the performance of a metal when it comes to striking. Copper is more dense than iron/steel at 8.9 g/cm3 and it is far softer. Let’s not even look at the density of lead or gold compared to their strength lol.
A quick google search will return the following:
“When compared to steel in a strength-to-weight ratio, titanium is far superior. The metal is as strong as steel but remains 45% lighter. In fact, titanium has the highest strength-to-weight ratio of all known metals.”
14 oz of titanium is superior to 14 oz of steel, ounce for ounce. You would need 45% more steel in your hammer to match the efficiency of a titanium hammer. Which means you would need a 20 oz steel hammer. And then it isn’t a fair comparison any more, now you’re stuck swinging a heavier hammer lol. Which defeats the purpose of a lighter steel hammer. Titanium is also incredibly corrosion resistant, whereas any steel that is used for a hammer is not corrosion resistant, quite the opposite actually. Rust will seep into your steel hammer, leading to cracking and eventual fail through the seasons. Not only that, but the shock absorption is superior with titanium. Pair that with a nice hickory handle and you can go all day with much less fatigue. It makes a big difference from wrist to shoulder through the years. Titanium delivers more of the energy produced during a swing into the object being struck than steel. Less effort involved overall.
Titanium also work hardens, so you’ll get your initial deformation, just like with steel, but after a point, it no longer deforms at the rate of a steel hammer head. I use a titanium hammer doing high rise concrete formwork, I hit steel all day and my titanium hammer wins every single time. After three years of constant use, it has outlasted all steel hammers that I’ve used in the past. 13 years of formwork and I couldn’t count the amount of steel hammers I’ve gone through due to cracked heads, snapped handles, cracked claws, etc. But the last 3 years have been spent using the same titanium hammer and it’s still going strong.
This dude just convinced me
Only thing I need to know is are they made in America? I don’t care how much they cost.
The full titanium hammers and new squares are made in the USA. The fiberglass and wooden handle hammers are made in Taiwan except for the wooden handle which is American hickory
Titanium hammers are for suckers.
That's everything you need to know.
Do not use tools from chinese owned tool companies! Stiletto is owned by a Chinese investment firm.
Why not?
@@kickyourfaceandlaugh607 because MAGA not MCGA
Dudes obviously never worked a day in his life with a hammer lol best hammer out there is right here
@Kenny Lewis who you talking about?
Milwaukee Tools owns Stiletto
