Sledge vs dead blow

These two hammers look similar, but one of them is working against you. This one's filled with either sand or steel shot, so the force stays with you instead of bouncing back. Won't damage threads. Perfect for anything that needs control, not brute force. Most people grab a hand sledge, but that's why they slip, dent, and fight you. Whenever you're trying to drive in a carriage bolt or not mess up threads, the hand sledge is not the way to go. The dead blow is going to protect your threads, give you a more controlled hit. That sand and that steel shot transfers throughout the head of the hammer with every shot, giving you absolutely no bounce back. Doesn't dent, doesn't scratch, doesn't fight against you. Perfect for the shock tubes like I had. I would never use a hand sledge on my shock tubes. I would never use them on a bolt. And and the dead blow is perfect for any controlled application. This is more for demolition. As you can see, I use my dead blow a lot. I love it. It's the Pittsburgh 2-lb. I also have the 5-lb, and I put them through their paces. I absolutely love the the control that a dead blow offers as opposed to the bounce back and damage that the hand sledge does. So, if you guys want to see more stuff like this, go ahead, follow for more, but for now, it's Friday night. I'm going to drink a beer. I'm out of here. Peace.
