The hammers are useable but will need reshaping. The dollies are way small and the heel dolly is hollow so not much weight there...so they are not very useful.

Good to use in a pinch if you have access to a flap wheel on a grinder to reshape the hitting surfaces to a useable contour (The pick hammer for instance, is a great center punch as furnished, with a very sharp end..) Also good for loaning out or someone who has one or two simple jobs...

All that said, a good used Fairmount, Snap on or other "real " hammers or dollies will be a lot more useful..if you can find them used buy them, and save up for the good stuff.

Dagger Tools also has a reasonable bunch of good new hammers.....
