Weeeellll, My personal recommendation is for the Estwing 28 oz, but barring that, I'd choose the Estwing 22 oz. If you're not looking for a framing hammer, I'd choose the Estwing 16 oz straight claw. A good mini-sledge is the Estwing 3# drilling hammer. For roofing, you can't beat the Estwing roofing hatchet. For the woodsy type, the Estwing camp axe is the way to go.
Notice a pattern?
Seriously, the steel, uh, shaft, on your Estwing will never get nicked or dented. The only problem that I've noticed is that when you've got a veeery stubborn nail to pull *sideways,* the shaft can bow just a little. I'll tell you this, though: I'll never own another hammer.

What is the reason you like Estwing hammer so much?? because of it's brand name or the handling of the hammer is good.
Estwing is just a great unit to use & about as durable as you can get and well balanced. I'm like Phil, have used them for years. BUT, unlike Phil, I do like my nailers too! :-)
