Question
when a large chisel needs a really strong blow, use a:
a. sledgehammer.
b. hard rubber mallet.
c. dead blow hammer.
d. ball - peen hammer.
A sledgehammer is a large and heavy hammer designed for delivering strong blows. It has a long handle and a massive head, which allows for a great deal of force to be applied. A hard rubber mallet is used when a non - marring blow is needed (e.g., on soft materials), not for strong blows. A dead blow hammer has a hollow head filled with material (like sand) to reduce rebound, but it is not typically used for the strongest of blows on a chisel. A ball - peen hammer is more for tasks like shaping metal (using the peen) and light to medium blows (using the flat face), not for the really strong blows required for a large chisel.
