Angle hammer
« on: April 26, 2012, 09:27:11 AM »
Found this hammer a few years back and was just wondering if anyone else has ever seen one. Looks like something Ronco would advertise! Head locks in three positions, I guess to pull nails at different angles. I don't think you would hammer anything at either angle. No makers name, but it doesn't say China anywhere. It is made well and doesn't feel cheap.

Obviously, it's to compensate for any tendency on your part to bend the nails as you hammer, although to do it right, it would need to swivel side to side too.

Bill, who can bend nails with the best...or maybe worst...of 'em

Just a weathered light rust/WD40 mix patina.

Needs a laser light on it so you know where it will strike!

That looks about as useful as a rubber crutch
