Vaughan California Framer® Hammer

A rugged tool with features the pros want.
The Vaughan California Framer® hammer combines the best features of two of our most popular tools into a rugged, heavy construction hammer. The smoothly swept claws were borrowed from the "999" rip hammer, and the striking face, hatchet eye and sturdy handle are a heritage of the Vaughan Rigbuilder's Hatchet. The striking face is extra large to minimize the chance of missed strikes. The hatchet style handle, available straight or curved, is made from American hickory. To provide extra strength, the handle has a large cross section where it joins the fully polished head.
- Head is forged of American made, high carbon steel, triple zone heat treated, precision machined and polished.
- Milled face grips nail heads to minimize slipping and flying nails.
- Handle is triple-wedged into eye with wood and steel wedges.
- Extra-long hickory handle, shaped for strength and comfort.
