framing hammer
Heavy nail driver
A framing hammer is a heavy claw hammer designed for rough carpentry work—framing houses, building decks, constructing forms.
It typically weighs 20 to 32 ounces with a long handle for greater striking force and a milled face that grips nail heads to prevent glancing blows.
The straight claw works better for prying boards than the curved claw of a finish hammer.
