Trusty Cook Hammers

[ekeller]

Does Trusty Cook make the snap on dead blow ball pein hammers? Thanks

 

[Chuck122]

Yes
you are welcome.

 

[DRhodes]

No. There was a topic on this yesterday.

 

[jjjrmx5]

Yes
you are welcome.

Might want to check that again.

Some say they make the std. all plastic dead blows for SO but NOT the DBBP's.

Dead blow ball peens is uncomfirmed as far as I am concerned.

TC cranks out a stellar product, just one that is, again, unconfirmed.
Even on their website.

 

[MattPersman]

The ones with the black inserts on the handles they (snap on) make themselves as far as I know

 

[Rezeppa]

No, Snapon Makes their own hammers it might be that they have some in the bluepoint line but the hard line of SO deadblow hammers are made by Snap-On. The design and concept is different. Also the warranty is different. I asked customer support and this is what I was told.

 

[vogelj]

I do not think trusty cook make SO hammers. They do make Matco, Armstrong, Estwing, Cornwell, and SK

 

[warmpancakes]

I do not think trusty cook make SO hammers. They do make Matco, Armstrong, Estwing, Cornwell, and SK

the trusty cook made hammers are branded blue point

 

[tjmonsen5]

Nupla makes a few blue point branded hammers, but I don't think that trusty does. I'll find out later today to confirm.

 

[vogelj]

I do not believe they make bluepoint either. My company prints the packaging labels for the hammers and we do not print Snap On or Bluepoint.

 

[ekeller]

Could it be that snap on puts the sticker on when it arrives their place? Im more confused than ever.

 

[BTG]

I've been in their factory and the owner Joel Trusty explicitly told me they do not make SO hammers anymore. They do make some large db sledges branded for blue point. As said previously, they label for SK, and many others. These are good hammers American made for a good price.

I know the thread is about who rebrands Trusty hammers but, I just wanted to plug that Trusty hammers are by far the best brand of deadblow ball peen hammers. I have warrantied at least two SnapOn and one Mac but not any of my Trusty Cook hammers. I use them twice as often and they hold up like no other brand. The design is the most comfortable and fit and finish is perfect. If anyone is looking for a deadblow any Trusty product is top notch in my opinion.

Hello All - Jeff, VP Sales at Trusty Cook (Trustyhammers.com), and new to Garage Journal and glad to be here to clear up some confusion about the Dead Blow Hammer Market...... Trusty Cook of course offers all full line of DEADBLOW Soft Face, Sledge, Ball Peen and Metal Shaping Bossing Hammers (new to market and only deadblow bossing mallet in Industry) that can be purchased at Trustyhammers.com.

We are very proud to still be manufacturing ALL our hammers 100% in the USA at our Indianapolis, IN plant! We also are PROUD to private label a full line of Dead Blow Hammers for several BIG NAMES in the Hand Tool Arena - Armstrong Tools (Red Color), Cornwell Tools (Red Color), MATCO TOOLS (Only the Green Ones - the red and clack ones are imports and not made by Trusty Cook), SK Tools (Red), Estwing Mfg. (The Red CCD Models/CCD45 is in Home Depot and all the Grey Ones with blue rubber grips), and finally Snap-On Tools - We only make the Sledge Hammer Models branded as Blue-Point for them, their soft face and ball peens are an injected molded hammer they went to years ago.

I have also seen some confusion on hammer weights, particularly the Ball peens, the Part Number for our brand ends with the HEAD WEIGHT (not total weight) - example TCBP16 (head weight is 16 oz and total weight is 26 oz.) We did this years ago to comply to GSA (Military/Gov't) Contract Standards/Specs. Confusing I know, but the weights are accurate on our brand.

We do offer a 2 year warranty against manufacturer defects (on our brand only - private label brands control warranties on their products even if made by TC). Warranty outside 2 years is discretionary on a case by case basis, but we are pretty good guys who always like to hear from our customers with any feedback or stories about our Deadblows!

We recently won top dog ranking in Truckin Magazines Tool Test on Dead Blow Ball Peens...check out the January Issue for details...and please take a look at our full line at Trustyhammers.com or any of our Private Label Customers!!! Thanks again for the welcome to Garage Journal!

I must say, I have received one of the TC deadblow hammers from a colleague who is from Indianapolis. Best deadblow hammer I have ever had the pleasure of owning.

Great response !!! I wish there were more tool manufacturers willing to make postings on GJ explaining their relationships with the tool truck brands and re-brands in general.

 

[Brownsfan]

To add to the post. I don't think they make the dead blow ball pein hammers for snap on. I have the Cornwell versions and they are simply AWESOME. Best hammers ever

They do not.

That's been noted and confirmed before.

Count me in, too........... I just walked over to my hammer drawer and looked at my brand X deadblows... I have the winners for an ugly hammer contest.. To say I am due for some new ones would be an understatement.

 

[sucking chest wound]

I am outfitting a tool box, needed hammers, and happened across this thread so I ordered from Trusty-Cook (through their website). My hammers arrived the other day. The hammers are excellent, and Trusty-Cook is fast and responsive.

I have enough hammer time to last me the rest of my life now.

 

[WHT]

I want to purchase two of your dead blow ball pein hammers (TCBP16 and TCBP24). So, please make it a great discount!

 

[fivespdcat]

Definitely interested in this. I need a light DB ball peen, and my TC/estwing 45 oz dead blow is lonely in the hammer drawer...
