Mike Rinderle Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 (edited) The make was after I parted my forehead. Got going sideways and tried to stop it with my head to protect my wrist. D'oh! 24.2 lb lever And here was the blooper for giggles. Ouch If you do the math, this is only the equivalent of a 21 lb regular sledge, but the 2" diameter handle seems to add back in some difficulty Hammer weighs 16.2 empty. 21.6 fully loaded with sand. That's a 2.5 lb plate held on by a couple magnets. Edited July 7, 2018 by Mike Rinderle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the thicker handle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They feel slightly different with 8 lbs added. I expect at least 30 pounds out of you on the war hammer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
