STANLEYSTHT0-51309 16oz Fiberglass Curved Claw Hammer, 450g

Packaging & First Impressions:The Claw Hammer (450g) arrived well packaged and ready for action—no dents, dings, or mysterious oily residue. Always a relief when your new tool doesn’t look like it’s already survived a building site.Design & Comfort:This hammer has a comfortable, non-slip handle that fits nicely in the hand, even if you’re more used to holding a remote than a tool. The weight feels just right for most jobs: heavy enough to drive a nail into stubborn timber, light enough that you won’t need a recovery day after hanging a picture frame. The ergonomic grip means you can swing away without worrying about the hammer flying across the room and adding “replace window” to your to-do list.Everyday Use:I’ve used this hammer for all the classics:- Hanging photos (because the wall looked too empty)- Assembling flat-pack furniture (and occasionally threatening it with the claw end)- Removing old, bent nails from a garden fence, which, thanks to the curved claw, was almost enjoyable—if you enjoy small victories over stubborn hardware.- It’s also perfect for those moments when you want to look busy in the shed while actually just hiding from household chores.Performance:The hammer delivers a solid blow, and the claw pulls out nails with minimal drama or cursing. The shock-absorbing handle is a nice touch, especially if you’re prone to missing the nail and hitting your thumb (not that I’d ever do that, of course). The balance between the head and handle is good, so you get decent control whether you’re tapping in tiny pins or going full Thor on a stubborn nail.Pros:- Well-packaged and ready to use- Comfortable, ergonomic, non-slip handle- Great for a range of DIY tasks—hanging, assembling, demolishing- Claw makes nail removal easy and oddly satisfying- Good balance and shock absorptionCons:- If you’re hoping for a magical hammer that does the work for you, this isn’t it- Not as heavy-duty as some pricier, professional models—don’t expect to build a house with it in a weekend- Won’t help you find the nails you drop in the grassOverall:If you need a reliable claw hammer for everyday DIY, this one is a solid choice. It’s comfortable, well-balanced, and makes you feel like you know what you’re doing—even if you’re just pretending to measure things for a bit of peace and quiet. Just don’t expect it to turn you into a master carpenter overnight. For most home projects, it’s more than up to the task—and gives you a great excuse to take a well-deserved tea break.

I apologise absolutely to the delivery driver of this item. I pressed the wrong button on the delivery email and couldn’t change it! Excellent delivery and from the look of it, an excellent hammer. I can now complete the tying down of our caravan awning in this not so good weather. Thankyou to the delivery driver and to Amazon!

Great hammer, very sturdy and good build, the size is good, and easy to function, very heavy and hammering ability is great. Very versatile, and easy to remove items such as nails.

Looks very sturdy

Definitely get one of these. You can tell the difference straight away when compared with the cheap crappy hammers most people have in their home toolbox.Bashes nails in with ease and feels great in the hand

Does what it needs! Looks good too

Works well, does as expected

Cannot fault the value when this is on Prime or offer days. The head rusts very quickly once the veneer has been scuffed off the head if left anywhere that has the slightest damp.
