Each of these earlier vids are a delight tooo .... someday you should republish these again so new subs get a chance to see them if they don't go back in time to check out themselves. Hope you guys are having a stellar week!!

I’ve found your channel extremely helpful as I’ve been doing more projects on the farm I work at. I’m pretty new to these things but all the tips and tricks you share have been great. Thanks!

I like this video, I’ve been swinging Vaughn for 17 years. Had a Tb2 got it stolen. This video is why I’m in my way to pick up a wood handle stiletto 😂🤙🏻

“Handled it” like a BOSS !

Dude that was satisfying!! To watch those are amazing I'm saving up for mine.

That was way cooler than I expected. Hammer smithing

Cool...I learned something new today!

Got mine for free from boss man because he upgraded to a ti bone 3 and it needs a new handle bad so thanks for the tutorial 👌🏻

Just got this hammer and a replacement handle for future but cant wait to use and test the titanium out.

Ey thanks for making this video. I’m about to do this exact same thing with my lumpy hammer.

I found a 14 oz stiletto in the trash pile on one of my jobs just put it together last night:) didn’t have stiletto handle so hopefully this one holds if not I’ll buy one online.:)

Beaver Tooth Handle Co. in Tennessee makes great hickory california framer axe shaped handles.

Thank you guys for the video. Have me a better idea on how to do it.

Dip the portion of the wood that goes in the head in linseed oil before driving the wood wedge. Linseed oil will swell the wood like water does but it will harden instead of evaporating.

In the northwest with axe handles and sledgehammers we use a dremel to remove a 1/4" of wood from the top of thehandle once seated, with wood wedges, and fill that with catalyzed fiberglass resin or liquid latex to seal the end. Handle does not swell and dry in wet conditions, removing the tendency for them to loosen over time.

I've never heard that before. I'll try that. Did anyone mention to always look for the wood grain going with the hammer head on a hammer handle? Not across as it will break much quicker if it is. My great uncle taught me that when I was real little.

Great job, bringing that hammer back to life.

Use the old shaft to make the wedges, make them long and you can send them in with a mallet.

thanks, subscribed....i hope i don't have to replace mine anytime soon, but i'm guessing i will. the grain on my 12 oz, 18 inch stiletto is very widely spaced and the handle feels very light. i would be afraid to hammer very robustly on new handle to set in head if it has the same characteristics. wish it had a rubber cap on the end like the old craftsmen wood hammers. i will probably try a rubber mallet or wood carving mallet to set the new handle..

Stilletto actually uses really nice hickory hammer handles. You just have to take the shellac finish off, rub on some boiled linseed oil and you are good to go.

Does the handle come with the wedges and pins?

Is a wedge necessary? I only used that steel stud. But my oak pieced wasnt sawed

My handle only came with one wedge and a slot in the middle. Did that handle come with two wedges or did you guys improvise?

I would have so kept handle on that hammer. Maybe shaped it or sanded it. I only replace the handles when they break at the head. But great video all the same 🔨👍🏼

@MrAlexH1991

Those are profile-expansion wedges. When you put the wooden wedge in to the top of the handle, that wedge DISTALLY expands the top of the handle to fill out the socket of the hammer head in its cross section. The steel wedges afterwards expand the PROFILE of the top of the handle so that it can fill in the rest of the gaps left in the socket.

Search for Grady Wedges on line. One brand is made by Red Devil, a well-known hardware manufacturer. They should be available locally at a good hardware store, but on line if required. They are not round like in this video, but are wedge shaped and serrated. They have been used forever for hammer and axe handles.

Y'all need you a vise mounted on your bumper or tailgate or somethin'. They you don't have to build you a jig to hold things. :)

use some glue inbetween the wedge and soak it in a bucket of water for night then it will last longer

You should trim the top bit before putting the wedge in, that way the wedge is properly seated

... how you gonna put a handler on your new Stiletto hammer?

To get the rest of the handle out, I’ve always just thrown the head (whether axe or hammer or hatchet etc etc) in the fire. It will burn out in no time. And when he was hammering the bottom of the handle to get the head on, another way to do it is simply bang the bottom of the hammer on the ground (with a piece of wood so no damage). Gets it on there real tight.
