Stanley St1.1/2 S/Master Hammer 16Oz 1 51 031

I recently lost my overpaid position at one of the top London money laundering houses – I mean investment banks – I think that proves Freud to be right again. Anyhoo, my package wasn’t as big as I had imagined (not the first time such a feeling has befallen me either), so I realised I needed a new career and fast. I tried being a ‘dole scrounge’ but then I saw what they expected you to ‘live’ on – that wouldn’t even keep me in coke for one night and I am not a Pepsi fan – if you know what I mean. So I decided to carry on my chosen career path and steal other peoples stuff – talk about a light bulb moment. I struggled at first actually getting into peoples homes but then I had a brain wave and bought this ‘bad boy’ and my career has taken off. I first make sure the ‘target’ is out by checking their facebook profile and then turn up and smash the bejesus out of their window and then bish, bash bosh I am in and out quicker than you can say insurance fraud, which it can be if you ask nicely. The Stanley or Stan as I cal it is perfectly balanced made of top quality steel and has a grip that is nicer than the steering wheel of my Porsche. So for all your extra curricular needs or just if you like a big tool – then look no further.

Quality hammer, got a good weight to it without you getting tired, and can de nail the smallest of heads out of timber, would recommend.

Excellent Quality, nice weighted hammer, Great value for money, Highly recommended.

This is clearly a nice hammer. It appears sturdy and well made. It is nicely balanced and comfortable to grip. The annoying bit is that the head has been dipped or otherwise coated in a plastic film. With the obligatory safety labels and other stickers, it looks like the head has been extremely well shrink wrapped. So initially I made some marks on it trying to cut off the wrapping - annoying! Then of course if you hit anything with it, you mark the coating over the face and it looks unsightly and would rapidly become quite uneven. I scraped the coating off the face and cleaned it a bit with fine emery so now the face is bare steel. I guess when I come to use the claw, that too will look beaten up in no time. Will someone please tell the buffoon at Stanley’s that their coating is a naff idea!

What can you say about a hammer it felt good easy to hold and if you hit the mail it went in

What’s to say. It’s a good hammer.

I first bought a Stanley hammer like this back in the early 60s it served me well so I have now treated myself to a new one as it is past its best. Good price, cheaper than I paid for the original. Seems to be similar quality. Time will tell.

Good hammer. Nice weight. Does the job well.
