Building with Precision: A Comprehensive Guide to Stiletto's Framing Hammers

If you’ve been framing long enough, a proud nail is inevitable from time to time - not to mention those tight corners that many nailers simply cannot reach. Today, we highlight Stiletto, a leader in the premium hand tool industry for over 170 years. From their iconic side nail puller to their innovative magnetic nail starter, Stiletto prides itself on producing groundbreaking tools for carpenters, framers and remodelers. 

Stiletto's Premium Hand Tools

When it comes to premium hand tools, few brands have the same reputation and legacy as Stiletto. Founded in 1849, Stiletto has been leading the industry with innovative and highly specialized features for carpenters, framers, and remodelers all over the world. Their titanium hammers and USA-made hickory handles are top choices for building professionals, and their iconic features like the side nail puller and magnetic nail starter are just some of the reasons why. We're thrilled to announce that Nail Gun Depot now carries a collection of Stiletto framing and finish hammers, bringing these premium hand tools directly to our customers' fingertips.

Stiletto is a division of Milwaukee Tool, a well-known and trusted brand in the industry. The Stiletto brand has been a leader in the premium hand tool industry since its conception in 1849, still providing products highly regarded by building professionals worldwide to this day.
