A air hammer such as a Heboe or Sahinler or Nazel is far better than a mechanical hammer. I used to have a 25 lb mechanical and there is no comparison. By air hammer here you must mean one that needs a compressor. The self contained air hammers are the best out there. I use mine for stamping, cutting and whatever else I need it for. The more I use it for the more I learn how versatile it is.
