ABSTRACT:
An improved hammerhead is disclosed characterized by nail retaining means for facilitating initial driving of the nail without the requirement of holding the nail in the hand of a user. The nail retaining means incorporates an elongate recess sized to receive and self-align the shank portion of the nail upon the hammerhead, an angular-shaped pocket sized to receive the head portion of the nail and a magnet insert positioned proximal the angular-shaped pocket adapted to maintain the nail in the elongate recess during initial driving. The magnet insert is readily removable from the hammerhead to permit rapid replacement after its magnetic flux force has deteriorated through prolonged use.
