Product Description
Stiletto 18 in. Straight Hickory Replacement Handle for 16 oz Titanium MuscleHead Hammer
Model Number: STLHDL-MHS
The Stiletto STLHDL-MHS is an 18 in. Straight American Hickory Replacement Handle designed exclusively for the Stiletto 16 oz Titanium MuscleHead Hammer. This handle fits only the 16 oz MuscleHead head — it is not compatible with other Stiletto hammer models. The adze-eye (rounded rectangle) handle profile is the specific eye shape engineered for the MuscleHead's head bore geometry, ensuring a tight, flush fit between head and handle when correctly installed and wedged. Using the correct adze-eye handle rather than a standard round or axe-eye handle is essential for proper fit and safe operation of the MuscleHead.
American hickory is the benchmark hardwood for hammer handles — tough, shock-absorbing, and highly resistant to splitting along the grain — providing the natural feel and vibration feedback that framers prefer over synthetic handles for the tactile confidence it delivers during full-swing framing work. The straight handle profile gives a traditional, direct linear feel during the swing stroke. When the original handle cracks or breaks, the STLHDL-MHS returns the MuscleHead to full working condition while preserving the titanium head, which is built to outlast many handle replacements. All hardware needed to secure the new handle to the head is included along with complete replacement instructions.
Framers who prefer a curved handle on their 16 oz MuscleHead should consider the STLHDL-MHC — the curved version of this same handle for the MuscleHead.
