The Crescent Fiberglass Rip Hammer sports a forged steel head with Permabond technology to ensure a durable connection to the handle. Its head, bell, striking face, back, and sides are polished for durability, and its rip claw is ideal for pulling nails and demolition work. A molded nylon jacket covers the fiberglass handle to resist overstrike breakage, and the hammer is factory balanced for greater control and striking power.
