Default Pre-orders of Hofi Hammer Handle glue.

We are putting together a order for the Sikaflex hammer handle glue Hofi uses in all his hammers, but need to know if there is enough interest. Price will depend on the the order, but should be less than $15.

The advantage of the SIKA is that it holds much better and because of the rubber like nature it absorbs the vibration much better. I am speaking about more then 1000 hammers that I sold in that 6 years time. One Container Is Good To Handle 25-30 Hammers.
If you wanted to try this product to attach hammer heads to handles, now is your chance. Drop me a email, pm or what ever so we can get an order together.
