NANDEYIBI Tendon Hammer, Black, 0.05kg, Nylon Handle

After 2 months of using this tendon hammer I can give my honest review.The price is quite cheap but despite that it is a very good quality hammer! It cames in 2 pieces easly to assemble, the body it's made of thick plastic, very robust but also flexible, allowing a good swing to hit the tendon properly. Also it got a sharpish extremity that I use for "sharp and dull" test or sensory discrimination, very handy. The head has a centre made of metal that give a good weight for the swinging and the borders are made of rubber, to sensible reduce the hit on the patient skin. Very good purchese!

Does exactly what I need it to and can be disassembled for easy storage

I purchased this as a Medical Student in preparation for Neurology OSCE exam stations. This seems sturdy enough and has been a very helpful tool in my revision. If you are considering purchasing one for exam practice, I would really recommend as it definitely helps technique.

Perfectly fine tendon hammer. Not sure if others received a defective one, but it's identical to ones used on the wards. It's the right amount of stiff, not too bendy, etc. Great investment if you don't want to run around looking for one!

I’m a UK neurologist and have gone through a lot of tendon hammers.I am on a mission to find decent ones and this is not one of them.It’s really thin, the head is small and I’m sure it won’t last a week of NHS work. It’s quite expensive given the dreadful quality.Buy this if you don’t care whether you do a good exam or not.I bought it so you don’t have to.

Good tendon hammer which is essential for practising knee, ankle and suppinator reflexes amongst others. The reflexes are an essential part of a neurology examination which is often tested in osces. The reflexes are the most common area where students lose marks and I know it is area in which I had some difficulty. This hammer helped me master all reflexes. They have the exact same hammers in my local hospital ward.

Used it occasionally for about a year, but it eventually broke as the plastic was not sturdy enough unfortunately

Well built, handy for OSCE practice.Comes as the pointy stick + (the rubber cover + metal screw on piece).You just screw the top (tendon reflex elicitor?) onto the pointy stick and away you go!
