User questions & answers

Question:	Think this is thin enough to use in a 4" wide ditch 18" deep without hitting the sides too often
Answer:	I used this to assist me in digging a 100' trench 18" down and 4" wide. I found it to be a very useful tool.
Question:	Can't tell from picture, looking for one where the head is easy to remove and replace from the handle for storage in tool box, can this be done
Answer:	I don't believe the head is removeable on this mattock. It's a wonderful tool, though.
Question:	inches is very short, is it not
Answer:	No. Swinging a metal and fiberglass yard-stick is not as easy as you would think.
Question:	How wide is the flat blade
Answer:	3 1/2" at the end , tapering in towards handle.

User questions & answers

Question:	After you slide the head on, do you need to hammer it on to secure it? how do you secure it on
Answer:	Hi, .You don't need a hammer or any other tool. If you assemble the head to its place it will stay there
Question:	How do I secure the head to the handle properly so it is on tight? Thank you
Answer:	Slide the head onto the handle, then strike the top of the handle down on a sidewalk or other paved surface to seat the head firmly on the handle.
Question:	After you slide the head on, do you need to hammer it on to secure it? how do you secure it on
Answer:	Hold the black part of the handle with the head side down, then forcefully slam the exposed end on the ground. The weight of the head and the force of slamming it down will force the head to friction fit. Every once in a while repeat to make sure it's secured. Hope this makes sense.
Question:	Never got assembly instructions. Help
Answer:	Its pretty straightforward... Just slide the pick through the handle. I dont know whats the confusion here...

User questions & answers

Question:	does it come assembled
Answer:	it comes ready to go. fully assembled
Question:	How wide is the head
Answer:	The head is about 18 inches long and the wide end is about 3 inches wide.
Question:	How do I replace the handle? I cannot seem to get the head off the old handle
Answer:	Don't throw it out like someone suggested! Cut the protective sleeve off. Then hold it the tool up vertically so the handle is on concrete or a flat rock. Lift it up a few inches and then smack the handle down on the hard surface. Keep going and it should come loose. Unless, of course, they haven't epoxied the thing. Another options is to saw the handle right up against the head. Then put it across a couple bricks and then use a heavy hammer and a metal bar to smack the fresh cut end. If that doesn't work, drill the wood out as much as you can and eventually it will get loose enough to remove the head. This should do it even if it is epoxied.
Question:	country of origin
Answer:	Wooden handle is American hardwood. Head is from Mexico.

Question:	How does this thing do at chopping out roots? Digging out access hole under house and not enough room for grubbing hoe
Answer:	It works well for its size. It’s not heavy, so most of the force comes from your wrist. A large root would take some time to remove. I purchased this so I could dig roots out with one hand while on my knees.

User questions & answers

Question:	How heavy is it? Comparable to a 2.5 lb, or 5 lb mattock
Answer:	Hi, we use this for everything. Most fossils are in some type of limestone or shale. This works very well to clear debris and get into the non exposed layers. We use it for fossil and rock hunting.
Question:	Whats the difference between this one, and the hundred dollar one
Answer:	one very solid piece.
Question:	New at fossil-hunting - in addition to this hammer, should I consider a smaller Estwing (maybe 13 oz.) for finer work? Thanks
Answer:	Yes, the Gfeller Hammer Holster will fit. You might want to get the holster for larger diameter handles just to make it easier but either will fit.I believer we're currently out of stock on Gfeller holsters. You may find a source here on Amazon or you could go directly to the Gfeller and make the purchase.-dana
Question:	Is it a solid piece of steel? Or a two piece
Answer:	The elongate side is a pointed tip. The short side is flat.
