After countless hours of pounding, pulling, and tapping nails, we&#;re confident that the Estwing E3-16C is the best hammer for around-the-house use. It&#;s about as perfect as a hammer gets, and it doesn&#;t try to do anything fancy or gimmicky.

The E3-16C is comfortable to hold and nicely balanced, whereas many competitors feel top-heavy. At 1 pound 10½ ounces, it was one of the lightest hammers we tested (weights ranged up to just under 2 pounds). When we were swinging them all side by side, the Estwing E3-16C felt noticeably lighter and well balanced. And with a nice weight distribution of the head in proportion to the handle, this hammer is easier to swing and hold than other models.

The E3-16C&#;s grip is another highlight. Made of nylon vinyl, it feels like a dense rubber. It&#;s comfortable to hold, and it has a very slight squish that adds confidence to the grip. There&#;s a nice little flare at the base of the handle, and the grip area has a good tack to it, so the hammer won&#;t easily slip out of the hands during a hefty swing. In 25 years of using an Estwing, I&#;ve never had one fly out of my hand. Some competitor models had individual finger grooves, which can be uncomfortable or limit the way you hold the tool. In others, the too-squishy padding can feel unstable or uncomfortable to hold.

Vibration is not a problem with the E3-16C. According to Estwing, the handle contains &#;the best available grip for reducing vibrations caused by impact.&#; During testing, I didn&#;t feel any real difference among most hammers with regard to vibration. In my own extended use of various Estwing hammers, I&#;ve found the negative effects from vibration don&#;t really occur&#; with occasional use. If vibration is a real issue for you, titanium hammers offer a (high-price) alternative by transferring much more of the striking power to the nail and less to the arm. For that, we recommend the Stiletto Trimbone.

The E3-16C excels at actual hammering, too, with a standard-size 1-inch-diameter striking face. This allows for a nice line of sight when hitting a small picture hanger nail or brad, while still packing enough heft to bury a framing spike in a manageable number of swings. This was a difficult task for the tools with oversized striking faces.

The E3-16C pulled nails without a problem, as did the rest of the hammers we tested. This was the one area where the tools were all in the same ballpark. Only a Stanley hammer distinguished itself here, due to the extremely steep curve of its claw, but that hammer has been discontinued.

Estwing hammers are durable, reliable, long-lasting tools. Throughout a 10-year construction career and in the ensuing years (including a nearly four-year gut and remodel of my own home), I&#;ve used a metal-handled Estwing as my primary hammer (our also-great pick, the E3-20S straight-claw hammer). After years and years of aggressive daily use, it still shows no signs of major wear. The milled edges aren&#;t as crisp as they used to be, and the hammer has taken on a weathered patina (the mark of a well-used tool), but it displays no signs of functional failure. In fact, all the use and small dings has given it something of a personality.

Carpenters generally share this high opinion of Estwing hammers. Both pros we interviewed use them as their primary hammers on a daily basis.

Mark Piersma, with over 12 years of construction experience, has a 16-ounce Estwing that &#;is pretty much my go-to hammer for everything.&#; Piersma said he likes it &#;because it is just plain solid.&#; He went on with specifics: &#;I think one of the best features is that it is well balanced. I really get the feel that it is one unit and not just a heavy head on a handle that I&#;m swinging around like a sledgehammer. Plus, I&#;m not going to get splinters from the end. The grip is great, and I like that the striking face isn&#;t obscenely huge.&#;

Mike Lancelotta, with over 13 years of construction experience, told us, &#;When I first started doing construction, I noticed that all the older carpenters all had Estwing hammers. And I noticed that some of them must have had them for over 30 years or so, because the blue rubber handles were so worn. They obviously liked them if they kept them around that long.&#; It&#;s just a good all-around hammer.&#;

For nearly 25 years, I&#;ve been using a variety of Estwing hammers, both as a working carpenter and as I&#;ve been doing big and small projects at my home. I&#;ve used them to replace floorboards, break up unused pallets, hang pictures, build basement shelves, bang partition walls into place and so much more. Through all of this, they&#;ve held up just fine, even the one I use the most often. Short of cutting into one with an angle grinder, there is really no way an Estwing hammer could be damaged.

Flaws but not dealbreakers

It&#;s hard to find flaws in an Estwing hammer. During the first few years of use, the hammer goes through a &#;molting process,&#; which may bother some people. The light factory finish starts to come off, exposing the steel directly to the air. During this breaking-in process, the hammer starts to look a little ugly, and you may think there&#;s something bad going on, but there is really nothing to worry about. Eventually all of the finish will wear off, and the hammer will take on the nice, broken-in look that&#;s the mark of a well-loved Estwing hammer.
