Default 100# Bradley

I am thinking of buying a 100# Bradley and was wondering what the weight of this thing is and how is this hammer to work with.

Thanks,
Fred

Bradleys are nice which style is it??? the helve is nice but it is huge... There was a smaller helve The The compact is also nice but much smaller, Still quite heavy, not just flat out huge for a 100# hammer. The upright strap hammer is smaller but the leather tends to degraded esspecially if you are useing the hammer alot...

I am not sure of the style. I will try to post a picture. It is not an upright and it has a steel arm.

I just uploaded a couple of pictures of hammers in the gallery. Helve hammer and Cambersburg. I am hoping the Bradley is less than 6000#.
