SRSemenza said:This may or may not be useful for this particular job but ............................................... I recently bought a Fiskars ISOCORE club hammer. There is a 3 lb and a 4 lb and I think a couple sledges. I got the 4 lb 14" model.
The thing that is different is that the wedge / cross peen runs front to back instead of left right like on an engineers hammer. So when you strike, the debris that goes flying mostly goes to the sides rather than into your face. The feature does work. You still need protection but it helps a lot to keep chips from hitting you. I have used it for a couple break up tasks.
Nice hammer in general too.

Ive used a sledge with that feature, awsome tool for breaking up a concrete floor or breaking rocks up.
Big rocks are better broken apart with "Feathers and Wedges"
