There's no substitute for a good hammer so go ahead and add the Park Tool Shop Hammer - HMR-8 to your home shop and hammer out whatever needs to get done. This 12in long hammer is as versatile as it is durable and its 8oz head is perfectly balanced for striking stubborn objects or any other shop use. It features a fiberglass shaft to help damp vibrations with a soft touch grip and dual head with a forged steel then precision machined 1in striking face, and a replaceable 1-1/4in non-marring plastic face (part# 292-8) on the other for more delicate work.
