The Real Steel #0402 Hickory Rip Claw Hammer 20oz is built for professionals who demand power, reliability, and control on demanding job sites. Real Steel designs its striking tools using modern forging technology to deliver dependable performance in construction and framing environments.

Because heavy framing and general building work place extreme stress on tools, this hammer features a forged steel head designed for strength and long service life. As a result, each strike delivers strong, consistent impact without sacrificing balance or accuracy. Whether you are framing, fixing, or doing general construction work, this tool is built to perform day after day.

Unlike basic claw hammers, this model includes a sharpened rip claw for maximum nail pulling force. Therefore, removing stubborn or deeply driven nails becomes faster and more efficient. In addition, the built-in magnetic nail starter allows for safe and easy one-handed starting of nails, which is especially useful when working on ladders or in tight spaces.

Comfort and control receive just as much attention as strength. The hammer uses a well-balanced hickory handle with a laser-etched texture. This provides a secure grip while helping to absorb shock and vibration. Consequently, fatigue stays lower during long working sessions and control remains consistent even in demanding conditions.

The Rip Claw Hammer 20oz fits perfectly into the Real Steel range of professional striking tools designed for builders, contractors, carpenters, and tradesmen. It is ideal for framing, general construction, repair work, and site maintenance.

In addition, the natural hickory handle gives the tool a classic feel while still delivering modern performance. Therefore, you get the comfort of traditional materials combined with the strength of modern forging.

Built with Real Steel’s focus on rugged durability and job-site performance, the Rip Claw Hammer 20oz delivers reliable power, excellent control, and long-term dependability for professionals who expect more from their tools.
