> 24 hourI mainly got this set for removing hinge pins and it seems to work well for that. It’s pretty simple in that it has 2 pieces which are connected by a spring. You simply stretch the spring then let go of one end so that it produces an impact. I was unsure if it would produce enough impact to remove a door hinge pin, however it moved the hinge pin on the first impact. For this I give it 5 out of 5 on Oilboy’s Slainte scale.

> 24 hourOther reviews mention the shortcomings well. Plating not great (and not really necessary, black oxide finish would be preferable), points dont index into finish nail head, spring probably a little too stiff etc. But in a pinch these will get the job done. I wouldnt recommend or do it again, but Im not going to throw them away either. They just go into the collection of better-than-nothing tools that I dig through when Im in a pinch.

> 24 hourThis nail set hinge punch set gets the job done, but I am not sure how well it will hold up. To use the nail set, you position it over the nail you would like to set below the surface, pull back on the spring, and let it snap down and drive the nail. To test it, I drove two 4d finish nails into a piece a fir board, leaving the nail heads slightly proud. I then used the nail set to drive them below flush (see the photo with a before and after for one of the nails). The nail set did the job, but I noticed that the tip of the nail set was slightly damaged after this simple test. It developed burs and it appears that the plating is beginning to flake. This is more damage than I would expect after setting only two nails. Time will tell how well this will hold up, but I am not confident that this will be a long lasting tool, so I give it 3 stars.

> 24 hourGot this for various reasons, from driving something down in a tight location like a hinge pin to marking the spot i need to drill. The quality is superb, and they are so easy to use. Ive already had several uses for them, driving some hinge pins down, which worked better than i could have imagined. These are a definite must in any tool box.

> 24 hourThis no hammer design is great for tight spaces and to keep from smashing fingers.

> 24 hourI was really looking forward to using these; I had several boxes of build it yourself furniture and bookshelves and was hoping this tool would make the process of nailing the backing panels easier. After several attempts, I gave up and went back to the hammer. Maybe Im trying to use them for the wrong stuff. They are built well and durable, they seem to be quality, heavy gauge. Ill be trying these with other scenarios to see what they work best for.

> 24 hourBoth of these get so much use on the job site. Being able to pop doors off the hinges quickly with one tool and no risk of damage is amazing. and the nail set is so much faster, easier and less likely to cause more work than reacher for the hammer and nail set. and again, doing with 1 tool what usually takes 2. not sure how heavy duty they are but I lose these things faster than I can break them, and I use them quite a bit and roughly, so for the price point this is a great option.

> 24 hourThese hammers are great to use! Theyre very compact, and provide a sharp strike that is perfect for dislodging things like door hinge pins. They also work great for hammering them back in, or putting trim nails back into place. They offer plenty of force when you pull them back far, and they have nice bands cut into them for gripping the tip that work well. There is also no binding up or rubbing of the springs when using them. All-in-all, a great set of spring hammers!

> 24 hourI work at a woodworking shop and the boss came in with a set of these. Once trying them out I knew I had to have a set of my own. These seem just as nice as the ones my boss had. I am happy with them so far. The spring seems nice and over all they seem sturdy. These will come in handy.
