Estwing Rock Pick Geological Hammer with Pointed Tip & Shock Reduction Grip, Blue, 22 oz, E3-22P

Good sound after hit the rock

Excellent and arrived very fast a week ahead thanks for the excellent service

Very pleased with the purchase (quality, cost and delivery time)

Lovely hammer, survived many fossil hunting trips, used for cracking rocks and sifting through mud, without fail. Picked the longer one which is good for reach (and helping to stand up from crouching), but it is quite heavy to carry around. So unless you expect to need the extra oomph from heavier head and longer hammer consider getting the 14oz one.

Bought these for a rock hounding trip. They worked great getting quartz crystals out of rock and hardened mud. Easy to use. Handles have a great grip. The weight is perfect. Very well made. Would buy again.

Da gibt es nicht viel zu sagen: der Hammer ist robust, sehr gut verarbeitet, liegt super in der Hand und tut das, was er tun soll, nämlich mit unwiderstehlichem Nachdruck Gestein zu zerlegen. Und ganz ehrlich gesagt, ein bisschen "Prestige" ist für einen Geologen schon auch dabei, einen Estwing an seinem Gürtel baumeln zu haben. :-)

Siamo al top dei martelli da pietra. Peso gestibile bene con una mano sola e l'impugnatura lunga e la robustezza del martello consente l'utilizzo a due mani per migliorare l'accuratezza. L'acciaio duro di cui è fatto trasmette la forza del colpo in maniera ottimale alla pietra. Efficace e precisa la punta acuta permette distacchi accurati, se ben maneggiato. Spesso gli indispensabili mazzetta e scalpello restano nello zaino. Non usarlo con mazzetta al posto dello scalpello con manico perché è curvo e si danneggia oltre a non trasmettere bene il colpo.

Hammer works excellent. Supplier was prompt in delivery Many thanks
