What are the benefits of hickory handled hammers?  **Hickory hammers are great for reducing recoil when driving common unhardened 16D framing nails. Avoid using them for heavy-duty fasteners like hot-dip 16D or 20D ring shanks; use a nail puller, pry bar, or all-titanium hammer instead.  **Q. How do I replace the hickory handle?  ** Hickory handles are easy to replace with a few tools; you need a pencil, mallet, handsaw, workbench or block of wood. Avoid driving the handle too far into the hammer head, as this can damage its lacquered surface and weaken it. Instead, tap it snugly into place and secure it using a wood wedge and two steel wedges for a strong connection.  - ![45% LESS WEIGHT HITS LIKE STEEL Image](https://www.stiletto.com/hubfs/products/TI14SC/Feature%20Reel/Feature1_TI14SC_Pod2.webp) #### 45% LESS WEIGHT HITS LIKE STEEL Hits like a 21oz steel hammer. -
