Classic
Still the right balance between power and lightness.

New Generation YO Hammer
Great tool. Seems more solid than before. Had to retire the old one. Really discouraged by outrageous wasteful amount of paper padding and giant box used to deliver such a simple small item that isn't fragile.

2024 forged hammer
I got my first YO in the early 90’s. It was the cast head and it didn’t measure up to my frequent wall partner’s Deucey A5 hammer. After I stopped new route development mid 2000’s I sold the YO with a bunch of other gear. After no luck trying to find an A5 I took a look at the new forged YO. This new hammer has the heft and feel that the cast version could never match. I like the longer tangs but the aggressive tapering of the handle seems excessive. Thanks for making the only true wall hammer available today.

The essential
Weather you leave it in your haul bag while free climb, or clip it to your harness to nail those pitons, this hammer if the essential gear if you adventure up a big wall. Don’t expect a light hammer though. This hammer has enough weight to effectively drive pitons in, and the narrow shape of the head is very useful to hammer them in narrow corners. Mine came with an extra sling, which was nice.

Great hammer
I am on the second Yosemite hammer. It is excellent to dril bolt holes with a chisel

Great Hammer but pour attachement option
The weight distribution and feel of this hammer are great but at this price, you would expect a better attachement system. I a satisfait but there is clearly room for improvement on that aspect.

Almost as good as a Dammerr
Quality pretty good by the workmanship balance and functionality of the USA made Dammerrs are just plain better.
