The Hammer EVERYONE is Talking About: Boss Hammer

What happens here

The neck of the hammer handle features a quick 45-degree casting shoulder. This design allows users to bottom out the hammer on a framing member, using either side of the 1-inch parallel lines on the neck to quickly mark a 45-degree angle. The handle itself is fully supported by three through-holes, meaning it's injection-molded for superior integrity, preventing it from breaking off, sliding forward, or rolling. A tether hole is also integrated into the handle, allowing the hammer to be secured to prevent drop hazards, addressing OSHA concerns.

Goal: Showcase the 45-degree marking, handle durability, and safety provisions
