Trusty-Cook Orange Hammers?

[hammersmadeinusa]

We could be adding orange to our line up? Here's a hammer right out of the mold, untrimmed. Any thoughts or feedback on orange hammers?

I do realize, as neonlazer pointed out so tactfully in another thread, that I do need to work on my photography.

Thanks.

Orange, perfect for KTM owners. I like it!

Needs to be more orangey....er

I think they are pretty orangey. His picture has a wicked blue cast assuming that surface is ~white.

I am at work so I don't have Lightroom to do it right but this is an approximation.

Edit: Ok I'm home now. Here's what it probably really looks like.

Also the color is cool! I love orange.

Why make them look like Harbor Freight's? The Green are the machines. Blue's not bad and red's the standard. I like in your face yellow personally but that's just me.

I finally no longer have an excuse to not buy some new hammers. I really have been waiting for orange...

 

[ptgarcia]

So I've come to the conclusion I need one of these. Having never owned a dead blow which would you guys recommend to start with? I'm just a DIYer type and will be using it around the house for home maintenance, a little wood working, and when working on my cars, truck and dirt bike. Thanks!

I'll have to send out a sample or two to somebody that has better photography skills than I do. It's more of a Schneider National orange than it shows in my photo.

I like orange! If they could be a more vibrant orange that would be nice. I don't have any dead blow type hammers, have gotten by with regular ball peens and sledges. I may have to get some if you make them in orange!

 

[woody 73]

Dear Lord thank you for making me color blind, if I could see all those cool hammer colors I would go ape **** and buy everyone...

Way cool Trusty cook

 

[Shootinok]

I want a yellow one (or two) I missed out on those.
But I have pink, red, blue - but what the heck, why not orange?

My SLR and I would gladly volunteer for that!

Perhaps yellow will make a comeback. We've got a few orange & yellow curing side-by-side right now.

Thanks Fir, that's more the color I was thinking.

Focus and framing looks good. I think you did excellent! Just need some better environmental lighting!

On the color of orange, there are alot of hammers out there that are orange already, don't see a real need for it, honestly.

We upgraded our equipment over the past couple years to give us more flexibility with colors. Some of you might remember the discussions about color "pots" in another thread. We can now do run some hammers much easier in different colors.

Do I, I remember the idea of swirl multicolor awesomeness.

I suspect this is the true look of the hammer:

What a difference Adobe Lightroom makes eh?

 

[cliftonbros89]

I have all green deadblows and ballpeen. But I would like a few of each in yellow. Along with a green sledge.

Can't say I'd go for the Orange myself.

I will second that not a real fan of prange either. Green and yellow got a list made up. Now if you were to go purple then

My default Snap On color is orange....so I have a lot of orange and like it that way. With that said, quality is always way more important to me than color.

Id love some orange dead blow sledges.

 

[3TV]

Most of my Matco tools are orange. I would like to get a few orange dead blow hammers. Let us know when they're available and I'll get a few.

Seconded!

 

[timothylockhart]

Seconded!

Haha. I like the orange, but now I'm about out of hammers to buy. There's one or two more I want to get but that's about it.

I'd be down for the deadblow extender though.

 

[TK-421]

I like it, looks good.

 

[BQuicksilver]

I'm still in for some of the green when you start back up on a batch. Orange looks nice, but also screams Harbor Freight, even if they're better quality.

 

[Stuart96]

Green!!

Why would you ever want green? That is almost as bad as blue!!!

 

[jeffmoss26]

Might be interested in an orange ball peen!

There is a rumor floating around Trusty-Cook that all models will be available in green at some point this year.

Of course I don't have my pictures of the mini max or the stubbies, but they are all in my possession. I did not order four of the styles, but only because I thought they would get too dirty in green and I all ready had them in blue.............

 

[Strouty]

A red one for flavor:

Flat flats???
