Amazing hammer, if a bit on the heavy side for me.
by Techie (5 out of 5 stars)

The ergonomics of this hammer are incredibly spot on. The handle design is the best I've ever come across; the handle is extremely comfortable and grippy with or without gloves, and I absolutely love the double swell shape. The swell in the middle makes choking up on the handle feel 100% natural, meaning you have no increase in grip fatigue even if you are doing something where you need a shorter swing or more control. At the same time, the long length gives you excellent power for something less precise like framing.

Also, the nail setter work like a dream. No slips, magnet strength is perfect, both 8p and 16p nails set perfect pretty much every time for me. Great penetration depth so you can swing hard on the second strike without worry, and I was able to accurately place them within an 1/8" of my target while roofing. Of course you have to adjust to using it, but that's not hard. Most nail setters I have used are mediocre, I only use them for setting nails out of reach of my hands. But I started using the setter on every single nail after the first few with the Fiskars. No more smashed fingers when trying to set through hard spots or OSB!

The only thing I would like to see is a lighter head version of this hammer, as I like higher striking speeds because they exhaust you less. Though that is personal preference, higher speeds require you to be more precise. And I can see how a lighter head with a good balance has its challenges, strength requirements mean maintaining a perfect balance gets difficult with steel with a head below 20oz. Which is why the really amazing hammers use titanium, and thus are super expensive.

Oh, and the clear coat on the paint it a bit weak. So far I haven't had any nicks through the black, but there was tons of damage to the clear after a days worth of roofing. But eh, whatever, I buy my tools for their functionality. Though I do have to say the design of this one is particularly pretty for a hammer. Never thought I would think a hammer is pretty...

All in all, this thing is totally superb, better than any hammer I have come across in its price range.

Wow what a great hammer as soon as u pick it up it feels perfect! I have had many hammers in my 30+ years in the trade . But none of them felt perfect like this hammer and let me tell u it sicks 16 penny nails effortlessly 1 to set the nail and 1 maybe 2 swings to sink it better then my 250$ Martinez and it only cost 40$ bucks.

Husband used to nail staples in fence posts. He said he wouldn't have been able to use a regular hammer because of the arthritis in his wrist. He had no problem with this Fiskars IsoCore 20 oz.
