$265 for a hammer?

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.
:dunno:

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?”
