Small: 224 gram head (1/2 lb). Ideal for kids as it is not too heavy to carry around.
Large: 454 gram head (1 lb). This hammer is a bit heavier and is good weight to break up larger rocks.
Protective Glasses

If you are intending to hammer rocks, these glasses should be worn at all times to protect your eyes from rock splinters.
Unlike goggles these glasses will not steam-up after a bit of strenuous hammering. They are also very light weight and comfortable.
