Overview
A forged carbon steel head is mounted on a short jacketed graphite handle wrapped in textured rubber. The mechanism is simple: weight at the head drives a chisel or drill steel, and the rubber grip reduces slip and sting.
A forged head and shock-absorbing handle are the reason to choose it for striking steel tools. The limitation is reach, since a short handle cannot build swing speed for heavy breaking.
Who it's for
Masons, fence builders and metalworkers who drive chisels or stakes in tight spots get a one-hand sledge. Demolition crews breaking slabs need a longer handled tool with more weight.

Performance notes
Impact force comes from head weight and swing speed, and a short handle caps the speed, so this style suits controlled blows. Graphite in the handle absorbs some shock so less of it reaches the hand. The forged head resists chipping where a cast head might.
