Re: Titanium hammers up for grabs. Want one?

Owning a titanium wristwatch I always saw its lightness as the main benefit of that material. In turn, this seems to contradict directly to the main requisite for a hammer. In the other hand, the 97% vs 70% of force transfer means that you probably could do with a hammer that is some 20% lighter for the same job.

Am I wrong or this seems like a real joint saver?

One thing is for sure: you better put a sting and attach it to your belt because I wouldn't like to "lose" such a tool on a construction site!
