Re: Reader Says Mythbusters Missed on Hammer Strikes

HI all. I'm an optician by trade and as such have seen the results of many eye injuries and hammer chips are a good source of these. However Mythbusters was looking to debunk the myth of the "exploding hammer" and this does not exist. Hammers chip and they are very dangerous when struck together, but they do not "explode". The fault here lies in Fine woodworking using this tv show as a defense in this debate about chipping hammers not exploding ones.
