    Not sure if I'll even look graceful using a 20 lb sledge - forget P90X or Insanity work out videos
    6 months of daily work with a 20 pounder would have to change a person into Paul Bunion

    Not many people enjoy swinging a 20lb sledge. When I worked derricks offshore I had a 20lb that would always be right where I left it when needed. A floorhand or roustabout needing a hammer would always go on by, hoping to find a 10 or 12.

    the same trick worked with a 48" pipe wrench ; )

    of course, if you get too close to a scrap yard with either of those, it might dissappear lol

    Now...2 1/2 years later, did you get that fiberglas handled hammer?
    I had one years ago and threw it over my shoulder to carry and I was picking fibers out of my shoulder for 3 months.
