If you're used to a standard 16-ounce claw hammer, this lightweight titanium hammer from Stilletto will make you feel like Popeye after he's had his can of spinach. This beauty has a graceful curve in its hickory handle that's ergonomically better for swinging--a small modification that makes a gigantic difference. It weighs only 14 ounces, but it drives like the big boys. We liked the magnetized nail groove, because it helps prevent hitting fingernails. The manufacturer says this is the world's first titanium-head hammer, and if that's true, there are sure to be copycats. The only word of caution: titanium has a million merits, but be aware that it will spark if chipped. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

 Way overrated March 4, 2010
F. hyatt (charlotte, nc)
I picked this hammer up from a trade-in program at a local hardware store. "Give us your old framing hammer & get the Stiletto for $50".
The first month was spent connecting new framing to an old house built in the '20s so I had to use the cats-paw quite a bit. Within a month the head became so loose I had to stop every 10-15 swings and reseat the head. Also, the cats paw wore off the waffles in that time. Not what I'd expect from a $100+ hammer.
When I tried to swap the hammer out for a new one, Stiletto balked, claiming that the head came loose because I had replaced the handle with one that wasn't OEM. I had never replaced, modified or altered the handle in any manner.
After several weeks of hmmming & hawing, Stiletto sent me a new hammer free of charge with INSTRUCTIONS this time warning me not use the hammer to strike chisels, cats paws, or nail sets as this would void the warranty.
I started framing California tracts in Silicon Valley in the '80s. I have used just about every hammer out there from Vaughn's 32 oz Caveman Special, Plumb's Rigging Axe (still use it sometimes), Hart's Hammers, & Deathstick's both straight & curved. I have been using Dagluge's for the past 5 years & they seem to be the best so far. In my experience this over-hyped, glam hammer is probably fine if you frame with plastic or butter but since I work on a lot of old pine structures framed with rusted 20d nails, I need a hammer that isn't as delicate as titanium.

Received this for christmas. I love it. It is a solid titanium that gets the job done. Might appear light but dont be fooled. It is a masterpiece.

i do like this hammer. it pounds nails like a 24 oz, however, for demolition, its horrible. this hammer can not move a board. when you hit a board trying to move it, the hammer just bouces off. if all your doing is pounding nails, then this is a great hammer. if your doing a little bit of everything, my personal favorite is my 20 oz vaughn.
Great Value February 11, 2009

This hammer was for our son's birthday. He loved the hammer and couldn't wait to use it in his building trades class. The price was great. It was half of any price we could find at our local hardware stores.
The Stalleto worked GREAT! December 24, 2008

My wild and wonderful daughter does Habitat for Humanity with an informal group of other wild women who call themselves "The Stiletto Group". They like the name because it calls up the immage of stiletto Ladies sexy high heel shoes. They paint the heads pink and work the bejeebers out of any old guy who shows up to laugh. My daughter likes the work, and loves the hammer. Her aged father loves anything that makes her happy.
Yeah!
