A lighter hammer is easier to lift, reducing arm fatigue.
A lighter hammer, I would think, would have less inertia, meaning you have to use more arm force, increasing arm fatigue.

That's true if the energy transfer coefficient is the same.
The argument is that Titanium is better.

Think of it this way … “ Macs are so expensive !”
It’s a tool that some people will use to make money.

If its your job to swing that thing all day it could easily be worth it.
That said, I bet it would have a habit of walking off of job sites.

You folks haven't priced any Snap-On tools lately, I surmise. Ok, this is a bit more than even those, but not insane given the unobtanium content.

It's definitely a "If you "get it", you get it" thing. Or as yoots say now days, "If you know, you know." :biggrin:

Sounds a little like the arguments I see on my Facebook pages about cameras, lens, quality, cell phone cameras, etc. everyone cones at it from a different direction, value system, budget, etc. discussion applies also to discussions about “ what kind of vehicle should I buy?”
