ABSTRACT:
A hammer having a head with a forward extending nail driving portion, and elongated handle to permit manually gripping and wielding the hammer, and a bifurcated claw portion extending rearwardly from an upper portion of the hammer head for use in the drawing of nails or the like. The claw portion includes a support structure extending from a lower portion of the hammer head to a rearward portion of the claw, to provide support for the tines formed by the bifurcated claw portion. The body of the hammer head may take any usual form, although it is preferably split into upper and lower portions which taper together toward the front of the hammer to support the nail driving portion; and which extend rearwardly to carry the claw structure on the upper portion and the support structure on the lower portion.
The handle may extend through the hammer head to support the upper and the lower portions comprising the hammer head, or may be received in a downwardly opening socket in the hammer head.
