I also just looked at the Vaughn Tools website, which makes a comparable hammer that is distributed here in the US. The price is $1 more, but the shipping to my location is less than $8 (FedEx to boot). More importantly,, it only goes up by a few cents when you add an additional hammer to your cart and they sell their version of the other hammer Paul uses in the videos (Which I’ve purchased locally and like very much). So you could theoretically make the direct website of the company your one stop shop for one or both hammers, as well as different hardness’ of faces. Buying directly from the company might not save you money in this case, but it does take the middleman out of the equation which helps the maker. I’m thinking about ordering the hammer discussed here and a soft face for one of its sides for assembly. I like the 12 oz hammer, but a bit more heft would be useful I think.
The Vaughn Part number is “NT 150” and can be found Do a search for “NT 150” on the website and the different faces all come up at the top.
