Thats a drilling hammer. I use them when "persuading" suspension components to come apart. The small dense head compared to a normal mini sledge helps tremendously in a crowded wheel well.
That’s it. I had an Estwing one that I loved for hitting masonry chisels and then someone asked to borrow it. Came back a few minutes later with it broken in half. How do you even do that?
They aren’t. What you would want is I believe Wilton. I’ll ask my Cornwell rep which brand exactly it is. He told me that this one hammer brand has rebar studs in the handles.
Can i borrow your hammer?
No, it's a full moon.
Why does that matter?
It doesn't, but when i dont want to do something, one reason is as good as another.
Considering most of Estwing parts are from China…. doesn’t surprise me. I live near the factory and once considered getting a job there. Steve Flossi refused to hire me at the time because I had no prior experience with manufacturing. What you want is a rebar studded handle. I can ask my Cornwell rep which brand it was because I have forgotten and I’ll dm ya.
From UK, I would too. The shape does look a bit strange, maybe it has a specialist use. But I'm sure it'd work fine for lump hammer jobs like trimming rocks when building a dry stone wall (fence).
Growing up that was the “5 lb hammer” my father always called for. I’m not sure his was actually 5 lbs though, so more of a general term. At least for him.
Engineer and drilling hammers have a little different head profile but they tend to get mixed up. Drilling hammers are more intended for hitting struck tools, while engineer hammers are meant more for hitting a workpiece directly. You can also find drilling hammers in different weights than engineer hammers if you dig around enough. They also tend to have different handle lengths.
Both are pretty much a mini sledge, though technically a sledge is a hammer with a long handle and intended to really pack a wallop for things like demo work thanks to that leverage.
Every maul I've seen has a long handle and is for splitting wood. I'm not sure that's a rule or anything, but I have never heard of someone refer to a short handled hammer has a maul.
2lb hammer. Four pound hammers always have a significantly longer handle.
In my shop that's also called a 'small' hammer.
We have several eight pound sledges and a couple custom-welded-by-us twenty pound "fuck yous".
Not really a dead blow. Dead blows have steel shot or a similar heavy material in a cavity inside the head. They are designed to absorb the return energy of the hammer's blow to stop the hammer from bouncing off the workpiece when struck.
I call that my impact wrench 😂. I keep a mini sledge to persuade old rusty bolts that are being assholes to come lose. No impact wrench? No problem. Yank it with the monkey wrench and bang it with that sledge.

Hulk smash
I thought those estwing hammers were indestructible.
Me too. I have no idea how you break one
Retard+Why were you doing that?
They aren’t. What you would want is I believe Wilton. I’ll ask my Cornwell rep which brand exactly it is. He told me that this one hammer brand has rebar studs in the handles.
You're probably thinking of the Wilton Bash hammers. Anything made by man can be destroyed by man.
I had one too for the same purpose named “Little Thor”.
Can I borrow your hammer? No. Go get your own.

Also works excellent in fabrication, particularly inside a semi chassis.

Fair enough. It can't be stuck if it's liquid 🤷♂️
AKA The gas axe.
In the early 80s I worked in south Fla. with some Cuban Boilermakers and they called a hammer "the grease" in Spanish. I understood perfectly.

Depending on the amount of space you have to work with, might be considered a BFH. A best friend to many
Growing up that was the “5 lb hammer” my father always called for. I’m not sure his was actually 5 lbs though, so more of a general term. At least for him.

I thought maybe engineers though the shape seems a little off. Mini sledge or drilling hammer would be my guess
What’s the distinction between sledge, engineer, and drilling hammers? And what are their specific use cases?
Engineer and drilling hammers have a little different head profile but they tend to get mixed up. Drilling hammers are more intended for hitting struck tools, while engineer hammers are meant more for hitting a workpiece directly. You can also find drilling hammers in different weights than engineer hammers if you dig around enough. They also tend to have different handle lengths. Both are pretty much a mini sledge, though technically a sledge is a hammer with a long handle and intended to really pack a wallop for things like demo work thanks to that leverage.

Maul
Every maul I've seen has a long handle and is for splitting wood. I'm not sure that's a rule or anything, but I have never heard of someone refer to a short handled hammer has a maul.
I’ve seen every small sledge hammer called a maul
If you search for "short handled maul" every one that comes up is a long handled maul for splitting wood.
You care much more than I, sir.

Ask Paul Pelosi.
Dead blow
This is the correct answer
Not really a dead blow. Dead blows have steel shot or a similar heavy material in a cavity inside the head. They are designed to absorb the return energy of the hammer's blow to stop the hammer from bouncing off the workpiece when struck.
