A shock-absorbing claw hammer includes a handle, a claw and a striking head. Vibrations in the handle caused by the striking head striking an object are at least partially reduced by shock-absorbing means. In one embodiment, the head includes a top surface and a lower surface, with the lower surface of the head coupled to the handle. The claw includes a first slit for pulling nails, and the head further defines a second slit extending from the top surface of the head towards the lower surface of the head situated generally between the striking head and the claw. In another embodiment, tension and compression rebars are positioned within the handle, with the striking head coupled to the compression rebar and the claw coupled to the tension rebar such that the striking head and the claw move relative to one another upon striking an object. In a further embodiment, the handle includes a first end opposite a second end with a main striking head and a secondary striking head coupled to the first end and the claw coupled to the second end. In yet other embodiments, the striking head and the claw are configured to move with respect to each other when the striking head strikes an object.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A shock-absorbing hammer comprising:a handle;a tension rebar positioned within the handle;a compression rebar positioned within the handle;a striking head coupled to the compression rebar;a claw head coupled to the tension rebar, wherein the striking head and the claw head are adapted to move relative to one another;a lug extending from a first end of the claw head;the striking head defining a cavity adapted to slidably receive the lug; and rein the lug and the cavity are generally square-shaped to prevent the striking head and the claw head from twisting relative to each other.
