ESTWING Sure Strike Tack Hammer, 5oz Upholstry Hammer, MRWT

This is a great too for wood workers! great deal. I lost the one I owned and purchased this one good quality. It's a tool your not going to pound hard with, so it fits the need!!

Good durable tack hammer. This fits the hand well and has an easy learning curve. This Estwing imported hammer looks good and performs well.

it's well made, and works well. its so much easier to use on brads in tight spaces

I needed tack hammer for a project I'm working on that requires some upholstery work, and bought this one specifically for the magnetic face, as I just couldn't see these fat, stubby fingers of mine holding a 1/2" tack straight while I got it started and wanted to have my left hand free to pull the fabric tight. Also, Estwing is a name that's been around even longer than I have. I've owned a few of their products over the years and always thought they made a quality product, so I didn't expect to be disappointed. But I was. First of all, the head wiggled a little bit on the handle. No big deal. A tap or two on the wedge would tighten that right up, and I don't expect perfection from a tool I paid less than $15 for. I made sure to stay away from the aluminum and copper tacks they had at my local hardware store and got some steel ones that would stick to the magnetic face on my new hammer. But when I went to use it I found that there's nothing at all magnetic about this hammer. It won't pick up the tacks I bought or even the 1/16" drill bit I used as a test to see if maybe my tacks were stainless steel or something. Needless to say, I was very disappointed. ***** UPDATE ***** Okay. I should have known, as a first-time upholsterer, that what I thought was a product flaw was just that I didn't know how to use the tool. The opposite (split) end is indeed magnetic, and holds my tacks just fine. I was expecting the solid hammer face to be the magnetic one. I still don't understand what the spit in the magnetic face is for but the hammer got the job I needed it for done.

Love this hammer. I was needing a hammer with a small head to use with some tiny nails and tacks. My regular hammer was simply too large and I ended up hitting my fingers. This one is perfect. It's lightweight and has two small heads. I think one is magnetic but I haven't quite figured out which one yet. The handle is wood which I love and feels comfortable to hold. I can see myself getting lots of use out if this one. Great value for the money and I recommend it for anyone needing a hammer with a small head.

Not as good

Nifty little hammer to drive tacks and other small nails. Good brand.

Excellent quality, durable hammer. Arrived on time, wrapped in plastic to protect it.

Das ist nicht mein erster Eastwing- Hammer, jedoch sind die meisten bei mir mittlerweile über 20 Jahre alt und stammen anscheinend noch aus einer anderen Welt... so sind meine zwei jüngsten zwei Eastwings erst seit wenigen Tagen bei mir, beide via Amazon gekauft und... davon geht dieser hier umgehend wieder zurück. Was den anderen angeht (Modell E15SR, ein 15 Unzen- Finish- Hammer mit Ledergriff, 'noch' US- Made), so ist dieser wirklich OK. Das Teil tut auch schon seinen Dienst und passt mir genau- auch die Verarbeitung in dem Fall: nix dolles, aber ohne echte Mängel und für den Preis von knapp über 50 EUR jedenfalls zu empfehlen. Was den EMRWT Tack Hammer angeht... nein. Nicht gut. Ein echter Fehlgriff. Der Hammerkopf ist auf 2 Seiten und am Auge derartig massiv verschliffen, dass ich vermuten muss, dass das missratene Teil einfach in der Qualitätskontrolle übersehen worden sein muss. Wenn es sowas da noch gibt... Im Ernst: an der Fertigung 'Made in Taiwan' wird es nicht unbedingt liegen- viele Ex- Made in USA- Marken wie Eastwing oder auch Stiletto/Milwaukee lassen ja ihre Massenware in Fernost fertigen und, offengesagt, nicht wirklich schlechter. Das hier kann nur die Ausnahme sein und hätte wenigesten vor Versand bei Amazon auffallen müssen. Vermutlich wurde der Arbeiter von einem frisch erneuerten Schleifband an der Maschine überrascht... 'hoppla!'. Warum man so auch gleich immer den fetten 'Schutzlack' am Kopf stellenweise wieder mit abschleift, wird mir ein Rätsel bleiben... Der Hammer taugt so zu wenig. Er ist einfach völlig schief. Da kann ich auch einen Flusskiesel als Hammer nehmen. Anzumerken wäre noch, das der magnetische Teil den Kopfes recht ordentlich stark magnetisiert ist. Bei meine alten Tack- Hämmern (für Polsternägel, Tapeziernägel mit breitem Kopf, Kammzwecken usw...) ist dies nicht der Fall, oder evt auch nicht 'mehr' der Fall. Fazit: Schäm dich, Estwing. Zweiter Versuch wird hoffendlich besser... Fotos anbei. (Man beachte auch den Warnhinweis für Kalifornien - vermutlich wg. dem bösen Schutzlack am Kopf).

Excellent marteau qui m'a permis de faire mes premier pas de tapissière amateur. Bon rapport qualité prix. Je recommande cet article

all good

Martelo perfeito, mesmo ele sendo pra tachinha eu comprei pra usar justamente com os pregos de fundo de guarda roupa as vezes monto guarda roupa em pé e preciso apertar um prego onde o braço não alcança. E esse martelo tem uma precisão excelente além de colocar os pregos sem força alguma. Já é a quinta ferramenta da estwing na minha caixa de ferramentas que é indispensável recomendo muito

Very handy
