The Vaughan CF2L California Framer Hammer 19 oz Milled is forged from American high-carbon steel at Vaughan & Bushnell’s Hebron, Illinois facility. The 999 series framing hammer is the union-carpenter standard — milled face grabs nail heads without slipping, and the magnetic nail starter holds a nail one-handed while you swing.
Hickory or fiberglass handle (Vaughan offers both depending on the model) with balance refined across 150 years of American carpentry. Vaughan is the heritage hammer brand for framers, carpenters, demolition, and finish work — the same hammers your grandfather’s union hall stocked, made the same way in the same Illinois facility.
Vaughan & Bushnell Manufacturing has been forging hammers in Hebron, Illinois since 1869. American high-carbon steel heads paired with hickory or fiberglass handles, finished and assembled at the Illinois facility — the framing hammer chosen by union carpenters and the striking tool used by generations of American tradesmen.
