On this journey we've managed to design and file patents for the world's most durable sledge hammer with Unbreakable Handle Technology, revolutionary design, and engineered no-slip rubber grip. From the Manufacturer At Wilton, we are on a never-ending journey to create the highest quality, most indestructible tools on the market. On this journey we've managed to design and file patents for the world's most durable sledge hammer with Unbreakable Technology, revolutionary design, and engineered no-slip rubber grip.

These are designed to mushroom when striking hard base materials, avoiding damage to the workpiece.

Review: A great soft-face sledge for the weekend DIYer - This is a great hammer that has already proven its worth in my garage. I recently used it to straighten a bent mower blade on my new Wilton bullet vise (the WVA6 is a solid deal if you need something good but affordable - I recommend that so much more than the BASH vise/hammer combo, which I only mention as it may likely grab your attention as competition for these two products even though they're all the same brand), and it handled the job perfectly. I really appreciate the soft face on this model because it helps the anvil on my vise last longer while I strike it. However, if you buy this, make sure you understand what a soft face is actually for. You should never use a soft face sledge like this to hammer metal stakes into the ground. When ordering, I opted for the 2.5 pound head instead of the 4 pound option because I wanted something a bit easier to swing and control. The 2.5 pound weight feels very close to a traditional hammer, whereas the 4 pound version can feel rather heavy. If you are debating between the two sizes, just consider how much force you actually need and make your decision based on that. I am just a weekend DIYer who works in IT during the week, certainly not a professional blacksmith. While the pros might laugh at my setup, this hammer gives me a lot of confidence. The unbreakable handle design is a huge plus, giving me peace of mind knowing the tool will survive even if my amateur aim is off and I happen to miss a swing. Overall, it is a well-built tool that easily meets my needs around the house.
Review: Nice - It's an awesome itty bitty hammer. Well worth the money
