If you tap your maple trees then you should get to know them. Most good trees will be good every year and most bad trees will be bad every year. Why?... We still don't know for sure. University of Maine says it has to do with moisture in the ground, tapping location, etc.... But some are just good and some are just bad.

**WARNING** This hammer is expensive. Titanium is 30X the cost of steel, but we don't charge 30X more. Titanium is supposed to be light. That's why our titanium hammer is 13% lighter than competitive hammers and about half the weight of steel hammers. But the secret sauce for titanium is the efficiency. 97% efficient vs. 70% for steel. That's why titanium often "hits hard" yet there's no recoil shock to your body.
We often get asked... Do hickory handles last, and does titanium wear prematurely? Depending on your environment, hickory can last as long as 1pc hammers, but they sometimes fail quicker. But they're also half the price. The faces can wear, but after years of use, they should still be useable with many years of tread left. Here's what one of our hickory handle titanium hammers looks like after about two years of use. #framersareadyingbreed #framerlife #titaniumhammer #wrangotools
Titanium is expensive, but not as expensive as your health. Even if you're not experiencing body pain yet, the years of using steel hammer and steel bars will wear on you. The secret isn't that titanium is lighter. That helps. The secret is the efficiency of titanium. 97% energy transfer vs. 70% for steel. That 30% waste from steel goes into your body as impact shock. Every day. Every swing. Switch now and your future self will thank you. #titaniumtools #framersareadyingbreed #framerlife
