I’m out at World of Concrete with one of my favorite people at the whole show—Chris from Martinez—and we’re digging into what’s new. Martinez is all about what they call the three Ps: performance, user protection (that titanium handle helps kill a lot of shock), and preference (all the color options). But this year there’s a fourth P: something built for the trades that need smaller, tighter, more precise tools. The big reveal is the new Martinez MK18: a 10.5-inch titanium hammer setup that comes in under a pound. It’s a wild little package with that skull form factor that’s made for tight spots, trim work, and precision hits—plus it’s not just about driving nails; sometimes you’re just persuading material into place. We also talk modularity: you can swap between a trim head and a brick/predator-style head on the same 10.5" handle, and Martinez upgraded to ARP (American Racing Products) bolts so head swaps stay strong and workable even after a full day. Then Chris drops the M80—same footprint as the M79, but flat-sided and about nine ounces heavier for better striking in areas where your swing radius is limited. On top of that, we touch custom Cerakote/camo options and what’s coming next: more measuring, layout, and precision square innovation aimed at being the most accurate stuff on the market.
