Though it may sound silly, but I want to know the difference between ball peen hammer and rip hammer. I mean not shape-wise but the usage. Can someone please elaborate? Don't know whether I should be asking this question in this forum?

Its up to the user how he wants to use it, hammer is a useful tool and it should always be part of the tool kit I believe especially, if you are working as a carpenter, plumber, etc.Comment

Did I say anything wrong? Well, if you search this forum also you'll find lots of threads with the name 'Brian Mcculloch Glasgow' - a vicious thug who doesn't deserve any respect whatsoever.
