Re: Titanium hammers up for grabs. Want one?

I may be old school but I like my regular steel 28oz Hart framing hammer. I've never used a titanium hammer and have never heard an adequate explanation on how they work. I always thought that it was the weight of the hammer on the nail head that created the driving force. A lighter hammer it would seem would require more human effort. $200 has seemed an expensive experiment, almost the cost of a pneumatic nailer, and so I have kept clear of the temptation. I would love to be proved wrong in my asumptions.
