Product Reviews
~ Oda, 2012Just got a 24oz framer for xmas. Best hammer I've ever had in my hands. Balance and feels great. Can't wait to pick up a finish hammer to match. Who wants some anti vibes they don't live here any more. Thanks for the great hammer. Could cost three times the price and it wouldn't matter.
~ Mark Madlena , 2012I'm an electrician and tool fanatic so when I first saw your hammer I bought a 16 oz finish. I don't need a heavy hammer to drive staples so it was great. I have to pull more nails than drive them so it perfect. Sadly I left it in an attic and never got around to replacing it. I truly do miss it. So now it's time to get a new one. My current one is getting old and I like to have neat and innovative tools
Thanks the GOAT
~ Kim H., 2011I've used a 20 oz. Belknap Bluegrass framing hammer for 25+ years but have been unable to find an octagon replacement handle like the original. I've tried a few different brands of hammers to replace it but have been disappointed.
I recently purchased a Douglas 20 oz. framing hammer and am amazed. Great balance and feel. I won't miss my Bluegrass 20 oz. any more, though I still use my 16 oz. for finish work, siding, etc.
I can't recommend the Douglas framing hammer enough... Great hammer, worth every penny.
~ Sonny , 2011This has been the most durable hammer I have ever used I have been in the carpentry for about 30yrs. I do framing and finish carpentry and it works for both areas of carpentry. I had bought a stiello hammer and it broke at the claw area. I am very impress with the douglas hammers. I am wanting to buy me another one. I have only had the hammer for about 6yrs it was given to me by the contractor we do work for.
~ Tim B., 2010I just want you to know I love your hammers. I lost mine a few weeks ago and honestly felt sad about it. So much so that my biz partner ordered me a new one. I just received it and can't wait to use it. Thanks for making such a quality tool. You guys Rock!
~ Lisa , 2010I bought this hammer for my husband who is a carpenter about 3years ago. He loves the way the hammer handles any job he uses it on, and the added magnetic nail holder is handy. Now his friend wants one also, but when I went to get one at the store in town they no longer carry the hammer. I found that it is more expensive to buy through the internet but is well worth the cost! All of the other hammers that my husband has had have broken within 2 months where this hammer has lasted through anything he puts it through (which is not an easy job!). I would love to see this product carried in the Tool Crib store again soon!
~ Josh O., 2010Hi guys and girls, I just thought to thanks for making such a great hammer. I was in a car accident and didn't work for almost a year, back at work now and remember how much I love that hammer I've had it for 8 years or longer. So want tell all of you thanks for such a great product to build with. People still want to check it out, with the side puller they like, until I take it back off them. Off to work I go HAVE A GREAT DAY!
~ Kayleen , 2010My construction team is madly in love with your Douglas Hammers. There are four of us and we spend a lot of time fighting over who gets to use them, so I'd like to purchase two more of the 23oz Framers. They are fantastic hammers and I will proudly use them on Recue Renovator. Thank you again!
~ Jerry , 2010I have two dfi20 hammers. I cannot say how much this style of hammer has helped my elbow and joint pain. I do wish the handles were stronger, both hammers I own had developed cracks in the handle from constant use. Is there a laminated option for this hammer? I have made 2 versions of a laminated handle and both have outlasted the original hickory handles. As you know lamination/forming/shaping/polishing/finishing is time consuming. I would like to to see a laminate option for this handle. It would also be nice to have some checkering (gunstock style) for better grip in cold weather when wearing gloves.
~ Justin, 2010amazing product nice and light and very durable the best of the best
