If you have quite a few posts to knock in such as 4x4 or 5x4 you might want to consider a post rammer or a post maul hammer with a larger diameter flat head, which unfortunately we do not sell. **Q: Will it break very large yorkshire stones** A: Hi, depends on the stone I guess, but I cannot see any reason why it shouldn't. It's a substantial lump hammer. The choice is entirely yours at the end of the day. **Q: Does this break bricks easily without swinging it too much?** A: It is like a long-handled club hammer rather than a sledge hammer. It is a great tool for the money So more a hammer action than a swinging one. It will break bricks and blocks. **Q: Striking face size?** A: Although the head is hexagon shaped, the strike face is a rough circle of diameter 42/43mm. This is an incredible tool. I use it mainly for splitting logs with a log grenade. You can also switch hands and use 2 handed when you get tired. I would say it's perhaps not so good if using with a chisel in the other hand. ## Frequently Bought Together - Amtech A2125 1.8kg (4lb) Sledge Hammer with fibreglass Shaft - Rolson 10780 Diamond Shape Log Splitter - Amtech A3400 Wood Wedge --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/48674025-sledge-hammer-drop-forged-steel-heat-treated-head-for-demolition](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/48674025-sledge-hammer-drop-forged-steel-heat-treated-head-for-demolition) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-16*
