Just bought a pair of Silverline ball peen hammers - a 32 oz and a 40 oz. The weights felt wrong so I weighed them - and the 32 oz weighs MORE than the 40! Both have the weight printed on the head. Supplier keeps trying to replace the '40' but they supply a hammer weighing 36 oz including the handle.
My understanding is that hammer weights refer to the head but cannot find references to that - did I dream it? Can anyone confirm it?
