Hammers with wooden handle

Wood

— "Classic of the genre", not losing popularity in our days. At a low cost, the tree sits securely in the hand; its strength is noticeably lower than that of metal, but this can be compensated for by the thickness of the handle — especially since the weight of this material is relatively small and allows this. So in most cases, strength is enough; and even if the handle is broken, it can be replaced with another one, all wooden handles are technically removable (except in mallets it can be easier to buy a new tool than to repair a broken one).
