## Overview

The Maxistrike JT-004 is a 24-ounce professional-grade rip claw hammer featuring a patented curved arc shaft that enables access to hard-to-reach spots like joists and piping.

Designed for builders and framers, this hammer balances power and comfort to enhance efficiency on demanding projects.

## Description

desertcart.com Necessity, they say, is the mother of invention, and this hammer is a prime example. A young Australian carpenter found himself going back with a nail punch to finish driving nails around joists, piping and other obstructions that his hammer couldnt reach around. One day, he put his hammer to the grinder, welded on some more material and started hammering smarter, not harder. Thats how the Maxistrike hammer was born. Years later, the brilliantly designed and gorgeously balanced Maxistrike hammer line is available all over the world, and its exploding popularity is easy to understand the second you take this hammer in hand. The difference is all in Redback Tools solid, one-piece patented arc shaft, an unlikely-looking curve in the hammer shaft that actually lets the hammer head reach into recessed surfaces that normally would have necessitated a nail punch. Redback calls this "maxi-access," but we just call it genius. The curvature totally recenters the balance, and in turn, makes the blows more efficient as well as less jarring to your arm. Contributing to the noticeable comfort factor is the extraordinary grip on this hammer. Its made of thermoplastic elastomer, which functions both as a shock absorber and secure gripping surface. There are subtle indentations that your fingers just find when you grip it, too, and it feels amazing in hand. This is a 24-ounce brute of a hammer, but wielding it, youd think it was closer to 16 ounces. The rip claw is machined beautifully, and the milled head is designed especially for the professional builder and framer. We think this hammer will become a must-have for those in the trade -- watch this one: Its going to be a hit.--Kris Jensen-Van HesteThe Redback StoryWhen a serious 2002 motorbike accident ended Australian carpenter Jake Tyson's career as a tradesman, he focused his energy on improving a tool that had remained unchanged for more than a centurythe simple hammer. The end result was the Maxistrike, a hammer with a patented arc shaft that allows users to drive nails over obstacles like joists and piping. When he found that large tool companies werent interested in his idea, Tyson decided that he had to market the hammer himself.Redback launched the Maxistrike in November 2003 and saw it win the "Dealers Pick" award at that years American Hardware Show. Since then, Redback has continued to dedicate itself to manufacturing innovative, sturdy tools for the carpenter and contractor, such as the MaxiS5 Phillips Screwdriver which works with both Posidrive and multiple head sizes of Phillips screws. Other innovative products include the Sketch Tape, a measuring tape that lets users write measurements on the tape's surface, and the Maxiknife, a rugged utility knife with a patented blade-change system and onboard storage for extra blades.Redback products are meant for professionals and do-it-yourselfers alike, and they are designed for maximum durability and functionality. From the Manufacturer The 24-ounce Carpenter Mill Face Rip Hammer offers superior balance and increased access to tight spots such as over joists and piping. This is the result of the one-piece forged and patented Arc shaft, which is curved rather than straight. Superior grip comfort is achieved with ThermoPlastic Elastomer (TPE) injected into the forged handle, while anti-slip ovals on the side of the handle provide a secure grip. The Maxistrike is great for professional users and serious do-it-yourselfers. Patents pending on shape and configuration of hammer head, arc flow into head, and the shape and configuration of the grip.

Review: A very useful specialty hammer - So, if you need this type of a hammer, this one is great. The only thing you would have to get used to is the weight distribution, it's just not as balanced. That is my only reason for giving it 4 stars. It is solid, and does get around some harder to reach areas. I do think, though, that unless you are using this for a specific project, a regular hammer to keep in the house will serve you well and save you some money. Lastly, keep in mind that the curve that allows you to hammer around a pipe or joist, etc., is the same curve that will make it harder (or impossible) to pull a nail out if you mess up.
Review: Hammer - All the contractor friends have been so please with this hammer. I ordered several of them for gift. I liked them so well, that I kept two at home. Nothing is handier for a woman, than a man with a good hammer.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A very useful specialty hammer
*by M***S on January 11, 2009*

So, if you need this type of a hammer, this one is great. The only thing you would have to get used to is the weight distribution, it's just not as balanced. That is my only reason for giving it 4 stars. It is solid, and does get around some harder to reach areas.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hammer
*by S***S on April 17, 2008*

All the contractor friends have been so please with this hammer. I ordered several of them for gift. I liked them so well, that I kept two at home. Nothing is handier for a woman, than a man with a good hammer.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This Hammer throws no curves
*by P***I on March 17, 2008*

This Hammer is worth every penny! Well balanced and has a hand grip that dos'nt want to leave your hand.You can tell it is made from the best steel ,cause you can hear the claw sing like a tuneing fork every time you strike a nail.The conacle shaped face lets you strike a nail without damageing other surfaces.The curved handle seems to give more leverage.I've been swingin Hammers for a least 30 yrs. Plumb, Estwing ,Stan Lee,Deathgrip, maybe borrowed somebodies Craftsgirl.This Hammer is really nice.The only bad part is my son bought me a Stanlee Antivibe which is O.K. for Christmas O well maybe he won't notice.
