In big@$$ hammers, that would be a ships maul. Never heard of a Shingle weaver hammer before, gotta look

I keyed that in four different ways and all I got were advertisements for "shingle hammers".
What am I doing wrong?

I just tried it again and the image didn't come up this time. The algorithm must be teasing us. It wasn't much of a contribution anyway. I'd never seen or heard of that type of hammer before you posted your catalog listing.

Okay, I figured it out. I just clicked on the image below from the initial image-search results and the other photo came up in the ones under that.


It was pure luck that he happened to have that hammer in his hand.
