Product Description
Stiletto 14 oz Titanium Smooth Face Framing Hammer with 18 in. Straight Hickory Handle
Model Number: TI14SS
The Stiletto TI14SS is a 14 oz Titanium Smooth Face Framing Hammer with an 18 in. straight American hickory handle — built for framers and remodelers who prefer the traditional linear feel of a straight handle and a smooth face for clean nail driving without marking the workpiece. The 14 oz solid titanium head delivers the driving force of a 24 oz steel hammer while transmitting dramatically less recoil shock back into the hand and wrist with every strike. For tradespeople driving nails all day, that reduction in recoil shock accumulates into meaningfully less hand, wrist, and arm fatigue by the end of the shift — allowing sustained performance through a full workday that a steel hammer of comparable mass could not match. The smooth driving face drives nails cleanly without leaving milled face marks — preferred for framing applications where surface appearance matters and for remodeling work where a milled face would mark finish materials.
A magnetized nail starter groove in the head holds the nail head in position while the operator sets the nail with the first strike — keeping fingers and thumb safely away from the smooth face during nail starts. The 18 in. straight hickory handle provides the direct, linear feel that many framers prefer for the tactile feedback and wrist alignment it delivers during the straight-through swing stroke. American hickory is tough, shock-absorbing, and highly resistant to splitting — the benchmark hardwood for framing hammer handles. The straight rip claw provides a strong, direct prying and pulling profile for board work and framing adjustments.
Framers who prefer a curved handle at this weight and face type should consider the TI14SC — the same 14 oz smooth face titanium head on an 18 in. curved hickory handle. Those who prefer a milled face on a straight handle should consider the TI14MS.
