Crazy skills, awesome result! Very cool to watch your process of trial and error and reshaping with the grinder until the two pieces fit just right.

[@HABU]

+ChicoMillion Thanks man! Yes I thought it's nice to show this step... ;-)

[@Dancing_Alone_wRentals]

Super job. Hammers must be one of the greatest tools ever discovered.

[@-a13x-75]

I don't think I've ever thought of a hammer as beautiful, but this one is truly beautiful!

[@HABU]

+- A13X - Thanks man, really appreciate it!

[@derekforestier1708]

I didnt know how you were going to pull it off, but once again you did. Great Work Derek

[@HABU]

+derek forestier Hehe thanks man! ;-)

[@DiesInEveryFilm]

Holy crap buddy that is freaking awesome it looks like a factory made hammer. You have really out done yourself this time man awesome 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@HABU]

+Diesineveryfilm Customs Thanks brother! Yes I had really fun doing this project, love it too! 😉👊🏽

[@Traderjoe]

Ww Hassan, this came out beautifully! hats like a heirloom tool you could pass onto your kids after a lifetime of use. I know some people will scoff at the idea of the costs and time to and energy to make to, but I bet everyone has dreamed of doing what you did here in some way or another. I think its awesome!

[@smnhpkns]

agree

[@HABU]

+traderjoes Totally true! Thanks man, much appreciated! ;-)

[@HABU]

+Simon Hopkins ;-)

[@jacobusjohannescaspers4476]

traderjoes it came out very well. Would like to have one

[@mitchd949]

Looks nice, but it's not nearly as strong as a forged hammer. When it comes to metal tools, looks are the last piece of the puzzle - how it's cast, forged, and/or heat treated determines its capability.

[@InformationIsTheEdge]

Could you make the screaming power tools any louder? Just kidding! They were already obnoxiously loud. The hammer came out well! Very creative!

[@HABU]

Thank you!

[@neddmoulton1]

Awesome!!! I want that. You should make 3 of each item you make. One is a giveaway to your subs and the other two should be auctioned off again to the highest bid from your subscribers. The money would all go to you and the channel. I'm sure it's harder than that however it seems like second nature for you and 99% of the people love your work.

[@HABU]

Thank you man! I really appreciate that😉🤙🏼👍🏼

[@RichWoods23]

That's a lovely piece of craftsmanship. Thank you.

[@HABU]

Thank you 😉

[@Darkeklaw]

Not just useful tools but the simple elegance makes them a piece of art too. I'd be afraid to use this hammer for hammering cause I wouldn't want to scuff it or scratch the paint. The workmanship though looks top notch.

[@HABU]

+Darkeklaw Thanks man! I really appreciate your kind words! 😉👍🏽

[@stephen33]

Nice paper weight. You did not heat treat it. You took all the temper out of the steel as evident by the deep blue oxide on the face. After a few uses the head will be dented and need resurfacing. The claw will be useless after a few nails. Secondly the handle has no foot, so when your hands get sweaty the hammer will slide out of your hand. You can still burn off the handle and heat treat it. It would be worth it, in part because you will have to build a proper handle with a foot.

[@paultroiani255]

What a beautiful tool you have created! I would be proud to own a HABU hammer..... keep making great things happen!!!!!

[@HABU]

+Paul Troiani Thanks man, I really appreciate it!

[@BlackBeardProjects]

Awww!! The head came out so good! :D Good job

[@HABU]

+Black Beard Projects Thanks bro! ;-)

[@js4187]

Good head is always nice .

[@lloydgarland4667]

Brilliant! Only two downsides I can see - tiring after swinging that lump of steel all day, and it needs to hardened and tempered. Fantastic job!

[@HABU]

Thanks for your comment 😉😁🤙🏼

[@paulorchard7960]

Very nice hammer and extremely clever choice of materials! You just won another subscriber!

[@elijahfeit3845]

this has actually got to be the coolest video I've seen in a while

[@HABU]

+JustAnotherWoodWorker Thanks man!

[@michaelb.5345]

I would like to know if your ideas come purely by looking at pieces or remembering something similar. Or if you have an idea and find things that make the idea work. Whatever it is it's amazing. Keep the videos coming..Thank you... Mike

[@HABU]

+Michael B. Thank you! Most often I'm looking at something and directly have the idea to build this or that out of it. In this case I just thought, "ok let's build a claw hammer, let's see what we've got..." and this is the result...

[@BrassLock]

@@HABU This is what I call "Recreational Engineering", and it's a great reason for having a well resourced junk pile. Actually it's not a _junk pile,_ it's a hardware store.

[@ricklake7211]

Nothing's better than a new Habu video!

[@HABU]

+Rick Lake Thanks man!

[@BOB-jj7rv]

Immer wieder motivierend und inspirierend, um's bisschen überschwänglich zu formulieren :D

[@zafaradil3548]

We loss great "crowbar" ! ! ! ! ! !please make another "crowbar' for us ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

[@edmarkham2632]

Maybe you should start putting HABU on your creations. Later on, you might forget that you actually made them. Even, maybe, make a display case as one of your projects and display all those smaller items for all to see. Never less, great job.

[@HABU]

Thank you man!

[@phillipjones1412]

Very creative and excellent welding.

[@maxwelldesigns3140]

[@flamedrag18]

you should never have any loose clothing or dangling drawstrings while using power tools great way to get real hurt the tool can pull the string tight around your neck or body.
