Hammers with metal handle
prices on 36 modelsMetal
— metal handles are usually made of tool steel — the same as used in strikers (although the striker itself is not necessarily steel). The main advantage of this material is high strength and reliability: it is very difficult to break a metal handle, even if you specifically set yourself such a goal. On the other hand, metal costs a little more than wood, and therefore is less common. Also note that the steel surface itself tends to slip in the hand; therefore, all steel handles must be made rubberized (see "Additional").Show
