ptree Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 I have 4 of Nathans hammers. I find them to be excellent. I do not prefer the "club" style that many advocate, and use the angle peen mostly when I am demo'ing. I have a power hammer and use that for heavy drawing at home. Since the first 2 fingers on my hammer hand don't have much power now, I put flats down the sides of the handles and apply beeswax to greatly improve the grip. The beeswax softens when you hand warms it and gives a slightly "tacky" grip, reducing the grip force you must exert. Congrats and enjoy, your wife chose well.
