The film is the final installment in Guadagnino's thematic "Desire" trilogy, after I Am Love (2009), and A Bigger Splash (2015). Its screenplay, by James Ivory, who also co-produced, is based on the 2007 novel of the same name by André Aciman. And if you’re looking for a bigger-or smaller-hammer, versions with longer and shorter handles (straight or curved) are available, with 10-ounce, 14-ounce, and 16-ounce heads.Ĭontributing editor Mark Clement is a deck builder and writer in Ambler, Pa.Call Me by Your Name ( Italian: Chiamami col tuo nome) is a 2017 coming-of-age romantic drama film directed by Luca Guadagnino. The Titanium costs about $50 more than the stainless steel version-no small amount of money for a carpenter-but (in my view) it pays for itself the first day. The lighter hammer is also easier to swing, yet I can still crush nails with it and plunge the claw where it needs to go. I don’t know if that’s true, but without question this hammer feels lighter in the loop, where my hammer hangs most of the day-and where it does the most damage to my body. Stiletto claims that a hammer with a 12-ounce titanium head has the same driving force as a 21-ounce steel hammer, with less shock. The 18-inch handle is a little long, but I don’t mind the lightweight titanium head more than makes up for it. The Stiletto head is more hatchet than claw, perfect for the way I use a hammer.Īs a bonus, the hickory handle fits my hand so well it almost makes me want to go back to hand-nailing. I rarely pull nails with my hammer instead, I split, pry, and pierce with it, mostly during demolition. But this hammer also has a claw with a very gradual “fetch” to it. That turned out to be true, though it normally wouldn’t be enough reason for me to drop a ton of money on a new hammer. It occurred to me that an axe-handle could work as a sort of hook, making it easier to snag the loop. I wanted to try an axe-handle hammer in the first place because I was having trouble slamming my straight-handled hammer into my toolbelt’s hammer loop, which is located on my right hip behind my tool pouch.
But it turns out that even for a deck builder, Stiletto’s 12-ounce, 18-inch framer’s hammer is pretty handy. And even if we were, chances are good that we’d be using a nail gun instead of a hammer. Do deck builders really need axe-handle hammers? After all, we’re not framing walls, where a curved handle would enable us to swing around the end of the plate more efficiently.
