Boss 18oz Hybrid Steel Hammer: The Ultimate Framer

The Boss Hickory Handle Hammer  is not just another striking tool; it's the revolutionary multi-functional instrument proudly Made in America. Since it’s the first hammer that can square, measure, and swing, this high-performance $18\text{ oz}$ steel tool drastically improves your efficiency on the job site.

To start, the hammer features a rugged $18\text{ oz}$ steel head forged from 4340 steel—making it significantly tougher than most competitors built with 4140 steel—achieving a 49-51 Rockwell Hardness. Furthermore, you can choose between a milled or smooth face finish. The smooth face features a handy magnetic nail starter that accommodates double-headed nails, drastically boosting your speed.

Crucially, the overall weight balances at about $26.2\text{ oz}$, and the hand-selected American hickory handle—finished with linseed oil—offers exceptional comfort and control.

Most importantly, the Boss 18oz Hybrid transforms into a high-precision layout tool. Specifically, its design integrates a complete squaring and measuring system right into the hammer’s head and body. The $16$-inch out-to-out dimension ensures accurate layout, while laser-engraved markings provide long-lasting visibility.

Here are the key features of the Boss Hickory Handle Hammer:

• Flat shoulders and claws form an integrated squaring system.
• The head squares up to a $2\times 10$ in one clean line, matching the tolerances of a professional rafter square.
• The hammer includes common cuts and degree markings typical of a professional framing square.

Consequently, this Boss Hickory Handle Hammer is a innovative design and allows you to transition instantly from layout to framing, saving you time and reducing the number of tools you need to carry. Ultimately, the Boss 18oz Hybrid Hammer delivers power and precision, making it an indispensable asset for any professional framer.
