Let's not fail to aknowledge the fact that the CUSTOMER has something to do with what hammer will utimately be used. When a consumer buys a new set of tires, he/she usually will buy the best tire that they can afford; of course if money is no object, they get the very best, with the longest tread wear and performance. So if the customer's budget is an issue, (and it usually IS where old worn-out uprights are concerned) you're going to get, what you feel is the best hammer for that particular budget parameter. Sure, you can buy Renner or whatever may be the "best" and/or most expensive hammer out there, but then you kill your profit margin.
