Brings up another question. What good are straight claws on a framing
hammer? They certainly are not worth a crap for pulling nails. Seems
like straight claws should be replaced with something more functional.


You're kidding right? Curved claws have a purpose. so do the straight ones.
Just because you don't know how to use them, please don't ban them from the
market.

Ever try to pull apart two nailed pieces? Curved claws are not worth crap
for that, but the straight ones sure are.
