  To a HALE!!!!  They are comparable in the literal sense of the word, in that you can compare them to a Hale, albeit in an unfavorable light.
 
Sheeesh!

   These NEWOCTAVE GLOBAL Tuning Hammers may compare unfavorably to a Hale, yet they are certainly comparable.
  
   Out of curiosity, compared to what???? A good hammer? A great hammer? A cheap hammer? :-)

   Ed & Tom... Thanks for the advise. The handles are supposedly nylon, but the description also says they're comparable to Hale. So that means the handle is NOT nylon, by deductive reasoning!!

   To answer your question, no.  But I did notice that the handles on these tuning levers are plastic.  That makes it less of a bargain.  How much does a plastic-handled lever cost from Schaff or Pianotek?  Not that much more, I would wager.

   Hi... Does anybody know the quality of NEWOCTAVE GLOBAL products? I saw an extension hammer for $45. Seems cheap for a good hammer but you never know. The website is  www.kspiano.com   Thanks for the help.
