Looks like a good deal on a versatile mini sledge.

Stay away from anything new from Estwing, all outsourced to china cheap pot metal, not good.
This is made in the U.S. with U.S. steel. Similar to some other brands, they have both domestically made and foreign made lines of tools.

Quote from Handplanepastor :
I love it when people use the internet to say China makes crap because they are using Asian made phones, computers, or whatever to spew their hate.
to be fair china does make some incredibly crappy crap lol. But I'm guessing anyone that complains about it here probably believed american manufacturing would come back and that tariffs were a wonderful idea

This is only a 3# hand sledge, so it's not as critical, but... a sledge is, maybe surprisingly to some, one of the tools you least want one piece construction for, unless it's a sheathed shaft handle. To the best of my knowledge, Estwing doesn't have any kind of shock dampening technology, either proprietary or licensed, for their sledgehammers, so I would not buy a heavier sledge from them for use in demolition.

Trust me, you want shock dampening, your joints will thank you for decades to come.

Personally, I like Fiskars. Almost zero bone rattling going up your arms. I have their 10#, with a 3' handle. the handle is... I think fiberglass in a steel sleeve, with a rubberized grip. Yeah, it isn't solid steel, but you don't want it to be. Steel transfers mostly all of the shock into your shoulders.

i bought one and had to return it upon minor impact pieces flew off at mach 1 speeds, always wear eye protection when using sub par overpriced products, these new ones don't compare to ones that were made pre 2001. You are only lying to yourself if you believe you are getting the same quality product from Estwing that was made over 25yrs ago. Change my mind, I'm waiting.

Not a durable product for heavy use. Okay for most home tasks for DIY's. It is what it is, don't expect more.

After reading some of the criticisms, I hunted around. The Klein Tools H80693 3 lb with shock absorption is $22. Most Klein tools are pretty good.

I bought one of these a few years back to use with one of those cast iron log splitters... Just needed a little weight to persuade the logs to split. It works just fine for that. Nothing fancy about this tool. If you need something simple and cheap for light demo or some other random use that requires a bit more heft than a framing hammer, this will do the trick. Perhaps a bit of a niche tool. I'm sure the pros out there have much better options with far more useful opinions. I sure wouldn't want to use this on a frequent basis. Like a previous commenter said... No dampening whatsoever.
