Or two, idk
Uh, what's the difference between the Rip and Claw hammers?
Also, that blacksmith hammer looks like a tiny double head axe

You can do more stuff with the straighter claw on the rip hammer, like whack it into something to use it as a wedge.
The secret option is the real electrician's hammer, some lineman's pliers.
My 3ft field geo hammer isn't listed. That one
Why is the welding hand funny?
Maybe something to do with insulating your hand from the heat maybe? But then again maybe not because don't welders usually use gloves anyways?
A metal handle doesnt burn or melt.
No but it takes a long time for heat to conduct up a coil vs a straight line. That's why woodstove handles are often coiled.

Where's Jack
Where's MC ?
no rounding hammer!
"Ball peen" makes me laugh every time.
I am a child.
That's a mace, not a hammer..
Not with that attitude
Where’s the glass hammer?
I'm always ready to rock
There's at least two things electricians, mechanics, engineers, and blacksmiths have in common:
- They have their own hammers.
- They do not, I repeat not, appreciate getting hit with their hammers.
Brass because it looks like gold :p
(I like shiny things)
I thought I knew one that wasn't on here but second look reveals that in fact it is on the list.
I need to put in a screw, so I'll choose the green one. It will perform as well as any other and plus it looks good.
Big hammer gives you all these flavors and vanity but I've spent my life around screws and they are all the same.
Drywall seems closest to a viking weapon.
I choose sledge. I recently broke up an area of concrete that took 8m³ to dispose of it all. Sledgehammer was a very useful tool to have during this.
I tried with a pickaxe at first because I thought it was very thin and would break easily, while this was true for a tiny section the majority was much thicker. At least it came in handy for breaking up the compacted soil.
Missing a lead mallet
I haven't owned, tack, framing, electrician, blacksmith, chasing, power, rock, and scaling. I have failed. I must do better.
I used to collect a lot for auto body stuff. Odd hammer head shapes make handy dollys for shaping metal in weird places.
I'm feeling fancy, so Brass.
Straight peen and rubber, bushing optional
Ball peen clearly.
Ah, so this is what MC meant. I've enjoyed my time here.
Rock
Electrician looks cool
I choose hammer time
Where E-Peen?
Ball Peen and Dead Blow are my EDC hammers but I also usually keep a good ol claw hammer near by just in case.
