They were listed in a made in the USA list someplace.
19 oz, straight claw, waffle head, magnet nail holder, available with
18" curved hickory handle.

anybody still framing with driven nails? is this practical, or just
a nice piece of furniture?

Just buy the damn thing if you like it. Who cares what anyone else
thinks, or whether it's fairly priced, or lives up to the marketing
hype, or whether you're ever going to need it? 80 bucks is cheap
satisfaction.


I had a fellow show me a hammer from a bag of tools a guy gave him to
satisfy a bar tab. In the bag was an interesting claw hammer, there was
something odd about the way it felt in my hand so I looked it up on The
Interweb. ^_^
