EFFICERE 22-Ounce All Steel Rock Pick Hammer with Pointed Tip, 11-Inch Overall Length | Essential for Geological Study, Rock Hounding, Prospecting, Mining, Fossil Dig, Masonry Related and Much More

I had been looking for a reliable, sturdy and inexpensive prospecting hammer for a few weeks when I found this on Amazon. On paper, it met all of my requirements, it is very rugged and tough, I've already used it to chip away at crevices in rocks in my prospecting adventures and I couldn't be happier with the results it provides. It's 22 ounces, and very strong, I don't need to worry about breaking it, the worst I can see happening is I will need to resharpen the pick after a few years. Other than that, I don't see any issues arising. The handle has a nice, solid rubberized grip to help ensure positive handling while using the hammer/pick, it's non-slip and really cushions the blows against your palm while you're using it. What a massive find, I can't say enough good things about this rock pick/hammer! The one drawback to it is you are only allowed to order one at a time. I wanted two so my wife can have her own while we're out prospecting, but that's not a big deal, I'll just order another one now that this one has arrived and proven itself worthy. Absolutely worth a 5-Star rating all-around!

Very nice.

This hammer did not disappoint. The handle was comfortable. It performed great. The hammer has great value for the price.

While shopping on line for a rock hammer I came across this fantastic product (Best Choice, 22-ounce all steel rock pick hammer with pointed tip, 11-inch overall length, sold by Efficere Tools) for a bargain price on Amazon. I was impressed with the super quick service receiving it in only 2 days after ordering it. I was somewhat surprised at the weight but it is a solid and durable rock hammer for a great price. This is the type of tool for anyone into hunting, mining, stone/rock masonry, chipping rock, archaeologist, and prospecting. The other end has a pointed sharp tip which is also handy when chipping rocks etc. The rubber grip makes it easy to handle. If you are seeking a strong, steel 11 inch rock hammer you may want to check out this product on Amazon. Rating: 5 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: Pro-Systems Combatives Vol. 1,2).

I like the size for ease of carry, and has plenty of heft for small jobs. Used this weekend and held up pretty good. Broke up some rock looking for minerals and it held up well. Held it's point and face without bending or spalling off. I purchased mostly for crevassing while out panning and sluicing so didn't need a high dollar pick, and expected it to be mostly chinesium metal, but was pleasantly surprised. Held up as well as the brick hammers I've used in masonry (19 years) will buy another if this one wears out

I dug a 12 in deep, 15 inch wide and 22 ft long trench in my rocky driveway with this little pickaxe. Heavy enough to break the soil/rocks but light enough to not get you exhausted with the first 10 min. Absolutely excellent tool. Love it.

Used for work to chip concrete.

Excelente pieza se ve de una muy buena calidad lo probé con un par de rocas metamórficas y la verdad muy bien lo que viene un poco fuera de especificación es el peso es superior al descrito y llego 14 días antes el pedido

مطرقة قوية جدا ولها عدة استعمالات تغنيك عن كثير من الادوات الاخرى

Not exactly a kids hammer, which it was bought for to go with a geology kit present …. But…. my six year old feels very important with his full size (heavy) rock hammer. It’s legit, not a toy! Needs a responsible user for sure, but very useful!

Really happy with the product brought for a Christmas present for my partner who’s a builder very excited for him to see it! Top quality and item was as described! Good value for money.

This lasts! I'd definitely buy again
