Overview
The Mutt TH103-106 is a hammer with a chrome vanadium steel handle, weighing 0.39 kg, about 13.8 oz. Chrome vanadium is a harder, more fatigue-resistant alloy than plain steel, chosen where handles see repeated striking loads.
A steel handle skips the wood-handle failure points of splitting or loosening at the head, at the cost of more shock transmitted to the hand on each swing. At under a pound, this sits toward the lighter end for a general-purpose hammer.

Who it's for
Suited to users wanting a durable, low-maintenance steel-handled hammer for general use. Anyone sensitive to swing vibration may prefer a wood or fiberglass handle instead.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Steel handle will not split or loosen like wood
- Light overall weight eases extended use
- Steel handle transmits more shock than wood or fiberglass
- No grip material specified beyond the handle alloy
Performance notes
Chrome vanadium steel handles are built to flex slightly and resist fatigue cracking under repeated impact, which is why the alloy shows up in wrenches and hammers alike. At 0.39 kg total, the head-to-handle balance favors control over maximum striking force.
