Estwing E3-13P ロックピックハンマー/並行輸入品

Best regards

Excellent for gardening excavations, to get to those pesky tough roots. Nice and light, with nimble balance. When a full size pickaxe is too big, heavy, or cumbersome for the job at hand, this Estwing hand tool is just right. This is actually the lightweight model of the several types of tools in Estwing’s geological rock pick category. So if it’s been developed for use by geologists in the field, it will easily cope with a spot of digging in one’s garden. It is well made, comfortable to use, comes from a company with a well respected pedigree, and is reasonably priced. The famous design of an Estwing hammer, often the choice of professionals, is sturdy and durable. However, the tool is designed for normal sensible use, not for prying sideways. My grandfather had one, many years ago, that broke when he used his Estwing nail hammer to try to pry open a badly jammed window. Similarly with a workman on a job site that used his Estwing drywall (plasterboard) hammer to do something, when a hammer and chisel would have been the right choice. Estwing’s drywall hammer has a rounded and milled (striated) hammer face to slightly sink nails below the surface of the plasterboard, and a thin blade on the other side that resembles a narrow hatchet, a bit like a tomahawk. It looks rugged and sturdy, but it is meant for plasterboard, not brick, concrete, stone, or tile. A badly chipped and damaged drywall hammer was the result of this chap’s misuse of a perfectly good hand tool. The old saying applies, “the right tool for the right job.” So, when used properly, the Estwing rock pick works very well, and is not overly large or heavy. All in all, a good pick.

Pedí el martillo para regalarlo a una persona aficionada a las piedras, y me pareió de muy buena calidad, solido y afilado. Pero finalmente lo devolví por que tiene un gran tamaño para cargar con el sólo por afición.

In the description the weight is less the 400g far away from the reality.

Ok
