I used it for one month and the handle broke.

Love Estwing products, excellent quality for the price point.

Handle says made in India. Was hoping for made in the U.S. Like most handles nowadays, it has a varnish finish. I plan on sanding this off, and treating the handle with linseed oil. Hammer head is a beautiful color in the classic Estwing blue.

Works great
