Weight of the Martinez Hammer explained

The Dark Knight is ideal for 1st fix and roofing work. As well as this, the heads and grips are replaceable and interchangeable. The titanium handle is brilliant because of it's ability to limit shock and requires less striking force due to the weight at the head end, so this reduces the impact for your arm and elbow.

Features of Dark Knight:

Titanium where you need it, Steel where you want it
Suggested equivalent to 21oz Estwing
Patent Pending.
All Martinez heads; M1 (15oz), M4 (12oz), M79 (2lb) are interchangeable on both M1 and M4 handles.
Mark Martinez (inventor of the Stiletto hammer) preferred combination is an M1 15oz head on an M4 handle (shorter handle).
Standard claw, no micro claw - this stopped production 2 years ago.

There are 2 build options available. Pre assembled or self-assembly . The self assembly options will come with all the components needed to build yourself eg hammer head bolt and grip pins. You will need use of a 3/8in spanner for the assembly. We do have the Teng combination spanner available to be added!
