What is a SLEDGE? (as in sledge hammer).
All other hammers describe their shape or use, but what the heck does
sledge mean?

Typically has a head weighing about 8# and a hand of 30-36 inches. As a
young surveyor, I often used one for driving stakes with a powerful overhead
swing. Now I can hardly lift one.
