Thor Soft Faced Hammer 31.710r

Weight, balance, size, shape, versatility - fantastic little mallet this is. I love everything about the design. My only gripe is with QC. The white face arrived slightly stripped (enough to notice, not enough to affect usage) and the head was quite loose. Easy fix but the need to do so shouldn't have been there. All in all a great tool regardless. I find myself reaching for this one first every time now.

4/5 due to there being some imperfections in the stainless steel area (little gouges) and micro cracks in the hard side of the hammer, but overall a great hammer for chiseling in my case.

Great mallet. Perfect for joining things together or taking things apart without marring the surface. Must have in your shop.

Exactly what I was looking for....

Came upon a recommendation for this dual headed soft faced hammer in a Paul Sellers video. Wanted a lighter and non-damaging tool to allow me to reset the irons when using wooden bench and moulding planes. This does the job well and has so many other uses not least of which is testing joints for tightness of fit and gently dismantling them. The heads - which are of different hardnesses of nylon - are replaceable, too A great addition to any craftsman's toolbox.

I have used Thor mallets for 35 years, but always until now their rawhide and copper faced versions. Having now gone through 3 rawhide heads ( and they are nearly impossible to replace for even a skilled user) I looked to find an equivalent. This soft grey and hard white nylon is perfect. The soft grey head can be hit very firmly against wood without causing any issue. The white is very hard and can be used against metal strikers on chisels and similar tools. The head is well balanced, and the handle which is wood, has a nice feel. I would recommend this. Different hardnesses of heads are available, and I am sure there is one for anything you need to hit.

Troppo piccolo e leggero per usarlo per battere su scalpelli

Muy buena compra.

Acheté comme marteau d'assemblage menuiserie, il est pas mal mais préférez l'autre plus lourd, un peu léger pour la grosse menuiserie aux joints apprêtés.Après quelques mois d'utilisation non intensive, la face nylon ne tient plus en place, le filetage est cassé, J'ai un marteau de ce type premier prix depuis des années.....il est toujours en service.Cela dit j'ai bricolé une réparation et refonctionne.
