I was wrong

Cool video! Both hummers are great, but I would definitely lean towards the smaller one. For now, though, it's not really my concern since I'm swamped with my studies and focused on collaborating with the team at https://stateofwriting.com/uk/biology-writing-service. They’re helping me navigate through my assignments, and I can’t stress enough how valuable their support has been. Studies are tough right now, and having that assistance m

I lost it on the video at about the one-minute mark ("shut-the-hell-up, or turn the music off and make your point" is what I usually wind up stewing up on such videos, which is part of why I don't watch them) but all my heavy tools in the garden shed came from swap meets in the eighties and I've never had to wonder about quality. If there is such thing as a cast hammer from anywhere in the world since Mao's devotees had to melt down their plowshares, that is unfortunate, however if I were some guy with a space in the garage that looked like it needed a sledge hammer in it but I were not otherwise serious, maybe I'd bite at a fraction of what a real hammer's worth. I dunno. Since I didn't watch the video (why not when this post took just as long...?) I'll never know.

Of course , I've never worn out the heavy end of a hammer .

drive a steel stake into the ground. The difference between forged and cast will be defined by the bruises on your legs. Cast will glance off the stake.... to amateurs, not a big deal but to anyone else... it's a huge deal. Why do I care? because eventually quality dies due to the Walmart masses.

When I'm winding a hammer I purposely try to hold the blows down to 1 ton anyway. So I think I'll be ok. ( sarcasm )

Maybe the old one got work hardened over the years . Maybe the should test a new quality sledge .

difference between forged and cast.
the first costs a lot more to make but lasts forever.

I said I'd only trust HF stuff for things they can't screw up like hammers, anvils, etc.

they can't even make a good hammer.

So sorry.
