Why It Made The List
Estwing are a true heritage brand, making the world's most famous, handsome hammers in Rockford, Illinois, since 1923. Their founder was the first to use a single piece of forged steel to prevent breakage, something that plagued the traditional design. Their laminated leather handles make them as attractive as they are comfortable to use and a lifetime guarantee shows they'll keep hammering as long as you can. For those who love their tools, these are as good as it gets.

Estwing's solid steel, 20oz claw hammers are American icons, from a company who just celebrated 100 years in the business. The balance and temper on these hammers is perfect, something that's obvious as soon as you pick one up. With accurate weighting and smooth, strong, American steel, these are hefty enough to make light work of anything that needs "encouraging."
Their handsome leather handles make them as attractive as they are useful and over time, will develop in patina, shape and comfort. As for the body, the head and handle are forged in one solid piece, preventing the customary breakage that plagues hammers produced from two or more parts.
All of this allows Estwing to offer a lifetime guarantee. Not that you'll need it—these things are made to be handed down again and again.
