Overview
The Thor 11-710N is a nylon faced hammer with a wood handle, weighing 14.88 ounces and sold as a single piece. Thor is a longstanding maker of soft face hammers used where a steel hammer would mark or damage the work surface.
A nylon face strikes without denting soft metals, plastics or finished surfaces, which is the main reason to choose this over a standard steel hammer. The wood handle absorbs some shock on repeated strikes, and at under a pound the head is sized for control rather than maximum driving force.

Who it's for
Mechanics, installers and anyone assembling or adjusting parts that a steel hammer would damage benefit from this soft face design. Buyers needing to drive nails or do heavy demolition should choose a standard claw or framing hammer instead.
Pros and cons
- Nylon face avoids marking soft or finished surfaces
- Wood handle absorbs shock on repeated use
- Light head at under 15 ounces for controlled strikes
- Not built for driving nails or heavy demolition
Performance notes
The nylon head absorbs impact rather than transferring it sharply, which protects delicate or finished surfaces during assembly, seating or adjustment work. A wood handle adds some flex to soften repeated strikes on the hand.
