Description
Hultafors Club Hammer MH 1500 g
The Hultafors Club Hammer MH 1500 g is a compact, heavy-duty striking tool designed for demanding workshop, construction, demolition and metalworking tasks. Its hand-forged steel head features two tempered, plane-ground striking faces, providing dependable impact performance and controlled contact with the workpiece.
The hammer head is blasted and protected with a clear lacquer finish, helping preserve the steel surface while maintaining a clean, professional appearance. A strong hickory handle provides a secure grip and helps absorb impact during repeated use.
With a 1500 g head and a total weight of approximately 1700 g, the MH club hammer delivers substantial striking force in a relatively short and manageable format.

Hand-Forged Hammer Head
The hammer head is hand-forged for strength and durability. Both striking faces are tempered and plane-ground to provide flat, consistent contact during use.
This construction makes the hammer suitable for tasks requiring substantial force, including driving chisels, shaping metal, dismantling materials and working with masonry tools.
Tempered Square Striking Faces
The MH club hammer is equipped with square striking faces on both sides of the head. The tempered surfaces are designed to withstand repeated impact, while the plane-ground finish supports accurate and controlled blows.
Using either face allows the tool to be rotated during work, helping distribute wear over the lifetime of the hammer head.
Protective Surface Finish
The exposed steelwork is blasted and finished with a clear protective lacquer. This treatment helps reduce surface oxidation during normal storage and gives the hammer head a clean, refined appearance without concealing the forged steel.
Hickory Handle
The handle is made from hickory, a traditional material for high-quality striking tools. Hickory combines strength, flexibility and natural shock absorption, helping reduce the transmission of impact into the user’s hands.
The wooden handle is available separately as a spare part, allowing the service life of the hammer head to be extended if the original shaft becomes damaged or worn.
Recommended Use
- Driving cold chisels and masonry chisels

Why Choose the Hultafors MH Club Hammer?
The Hultafors MH combines a traditionally forged steel head with a strong hickory handle and carefully finished striking surfaces. Its compact dimensions make it easier to control than a long-handled sledgehammer, while the 1500 g head delivers the force required for demanding workshop and construction tasks.
The availability of a replacement handle also makes it a serviceable professional tool rather than a disposable product. With proper care, the forged hammer head can remain in use through multiple handle replacements.
