Key Features
Overview
The Klein Tools Smooth Face Hickory Handle Hammer, 16-Ounce (H80916HS) is a 16-ounce claw hammer with a smooth face and a hickory handle. This is a general-purpose and finishing hammer designed for driving and pulling nails in carpentry, remodeling and everyday jobsite work where you want clean strikes and minimal damage to the material.
The head is forged steel with a black powder-coated finish and an extra-large squared strike face, about 1-1/4" (3.3 cm) across. A bigger face means more margin for error on each swing, which translates into fewer glancing blows and bent nails. The smooth face also leaves less of a mark than a milled face, which matters on trim and finish work.
Klein adds two features you do not usually get on a wood-handled hammer. A magnetic nail starter holds the nail so you can set it one-handed, handy overhead or at arm's reach. Dual side nail pullers give you extra leverage to remove nails in spots where the main claw cannot get a bite.
The handle is U.S.-sourced hickory, about 12-5/16" (31.3 cm) long, with a curved ax-style shape that Klein designed for comfort and control. Overall length is 14" (35.6 cm), head length is about 5-3/16" (13.2 cm), and the hammer weighs 1.5 lb (0.7 kg) with a 16 oz head. Klein lists it as meeting ASME B107.400-2018.
Who should buy it: carpenters, remodelers, electricians and maintenance techs who want a 16 oz all-rounder that drives cleanly and pulls nails well, and anyone who prefers the feel of hickory over steel or fiberglass.
