TeamNC review (1993 era)

The Nerf Blast Hammer is one of the the better pocket weapons made by Nerf. It is made up of nothing except a barrel with a plunger and a spring. The weapon has surprisingly good range and accuracy for such a simple weapon.The Nerf Blast Hammer suffers form the same basic problems that plagues all pocket weapons; it is very difficult to hold. The small size of the weapon makes it hard to steady or hold comfortably for long times.

As said before, the Nerf Blast Hammer is one of the better pocket weapons. Buy it if you're looking for a decent last-resort weapon.
