What happens here

The presenter uses the digital scale to measure the total weight of each hammer. The Estwing hammer, advertised as 28 oz, shows a total weight of 37 oz, indicating its handle adds approximately 10 oz. The Stiletto hammer, advertised as 15 oz, registers a total weight of 29 oz, with its handle contributing about 14 oz. This step clarifies the actual weight difference between the tools.

Goal: Measure the total weight of both hammers.

What they say

We got an Estwing, Stiletto, some nails, a scale. I hate the scale. Quick lesson if you'd like to learn. This is the head weight, not the full weight of the hammer. We got a 28 and a 15. This is about 37 oz, so the handle's almost 10 oz. We got a 29 oz, so the handle's almost 14. Let's hit some 16s and see how bad I do.
