What is the lightest and strongest metal hammer that is also corrosion-resistant? Able to be thrown over tall buildings in a single toss? Stiletto's TiBone Titanium Super-hammer of course! Stiletto's Hammers are the healthy choice. A healthy hammer? Read on my friend: "Stiletto's hammers are lighter by nearly half the weight of conventional hammers, thereby reducing the incidence of carpal tunnel syndrome and other repetitive-motion, stress-related injuries. The lightness of Titanium creates a greater head velocity with less effort. Its strength assures there is no loss in driving power." - www.stiletto.com
The Stiletto TiBone is a 15oz titanium hammer that works like a 28oz steel hammer. With a steel replaceable face that comes milled or smooth, the Stiletto TiBone also features a patented side nail puller that works like a charm to easily slide out 16s. AND it even has a magnetic nail starter. The TiBone hammer is really out of this world and so is the price at $266.
Stiletto also has a more affordable accessory called the AirGrip® "Cold-shrink" . It is a rubber handle wrap tube that you can "shrink-wrap" around any handle that you need improved grip on: hammers, shovels, wheelbarrows, you name it, the AirGrip Cold-shrink can wrap a rubber handle around it in less than 10 seconds. For $12.95, you can purchase a AirGrip Cold-shrink for each of your hand and gardening tools. And ~ it makes a great stocking stuffer (wink-wink).
 Am I shamelessly plugging Stiletto tools? You betcha! However expensive, Stiletto carries a fantastic product. My favorite Stilleto tool is: The Titanium Clawbar Nail Puller with the patented Dimpler™. What the Dimpler does is create a recess around the nail head allowing the claws to slide underneath, thus reducing the chance of chipping the wood. The Clawbar is the perfect nail pulling technique for a mediocre do-it-yourselfer like me. Also made of titanium, the Clawbar is 5 times stronger than steel but at 8.5 ounces (and 12-inches long) it is literally as light as a small screwdriver (and will still fit into the Xmas stocking). Cost: $88 - - a very unique Christmas present for the difficult to shop for person on your list.
ToolKing will be carrying the Stiletto line soon!
