Got to disagree with you there, Matt .....     As Mick Dundee might have said;   " Naah. That's not a genuine, Brades, Trapping Hammer! This is a genuine, Brades, Trapping Hammer ..... "    

Genuine Brades yes, trapping hammer no ...   It is a brick hammer   OTC

can see what your getting at....   ill stick to a 1.99 hammer out of B&M's

what does that do different...to a standard hammer :hmm:

 

Nothing I suppose.......

 

But, what you are looking at is a specially designed tool for a specific job, and an increasingly rare vintage tool as well.

 

What does a Rolls Royce do that a standard car doesn't?

I can quite understand why folks choose to use a cheapie hammer; I use a brickies hammer myself.

 

Well, I wouldn't want to get my nice shiney Brades dirty would I?..........

 

For those of you interested in old trapping kit, this is a bit of a rarity that doesn't often come up for sale. It should make £40 easily, and I wouldn't be surprised to see it make £60.

 

On a side note, I notice that Jubys and Imbras are now making £30 plus postage on there. I may have a clear out.....

Keep promising myself a trapping hammer from fourteen acre any experience of them matt or should I stick with my cheapo version?

 

The one from 14a is a very good little hammer, and well suited to the job.

 

I don't own one, but I have handled and used one and it certainly seems as close as you can get to the real deal. If I needed a trapping hammer, for daily use that would be my choice. It's a quality item.

 

It's all very well watching the pennies, but cheap crap from China just doesn't do it for me, but each to his own.

I just find the hoe on that particular one (The one on ebay) a bit narrow. I've got my own one here ~ bought through a mate in Oz. Cost me about a score, as I remember. It has a wider hoe.

 

I've seen the images of the 14 Acre ones and they compare very favourably with my own one. I've privately recommended them before now. I don't think one could easily beat their price by buying a common make from Oz either.
