Professional High Velocity hammer. This 14oz hammer is capable of delivering the strike force of a 28oz hammer reducing storage space and carrying weight.
Light weight leading to less user fatigue
75% larger strike face than standard hammers
Faster and more accurate nailing due to reduced weight and larger strike face
Magnetic nail starter built into head
100% steel construction for strength and durability
Firm grip handle with breathing holes
Length: 370mm

Is it any better than aluminium baseball bat?

You need to buy hammers from the physical shop otherwise you can test swing them.

Types in 'velicity' into google image search to find out what all the fuss is about.

Ooh I see what you mean. Not really family viewing for hammering!

first is the wrong picture,second it does contradicts the laws of physics(check mass and speed on earth),third it's an overpriced hammer(blame the marketing team),fourth probably I will buy one(I like hammers) :smirk:

How does it contradict physics?
From my understanding, it is slightly longer than your average hammer.
Longer handle = a larger radius.
A larger radius will generate a greater linear velocity
This increased velocity combined with the lower mass will give a value approximately equal to the force applied by a hammer with a greater mass.
Or the fact that they have just reduced mass from the handle itself making it easier to swing... again increasing the velocity.. increased force.

Isn't FatMax just a new and improved Daz? or a twin turbo Gillette?

Its what stanley used to be, until they turned their normal range into cheap chinese crap.

If anyone is interested that clip above is taken from the 1979 film The Warriors. For anyone that isn't interested I apologise for my nerdiness (which isn't a valid word anyway so I guess it's a way of apologising but not)

Oh dear. Bad photo of a good hammer being used wrong.
