Yeeeeah you`re right there. Expense wise and quality wise it really doesn`t seem worth it does it? I just really like it lol I`m a sucker for old tools, any decent tools actually ! I once found a solid lump of rust the size of a butterdish when I was out metak detecting. I could see that it used to be a lump hammer head. I removed every last bit if rust and then made a handle for it. It`s not a beautiful lum hammer that gets used often. I love the thought that it was hidden inside a field, further hidden in a LOAD of rust and had been there for who knows how long?! Until I came along and gave it a new life Good karma that was....
