Sledgehammer

Fallout and Fallout 2
A large hammer with big handle. Very popular with the muscular crowd.

Locations

 * Sulik starts with one in Fallout 2
 * Shark in Junktown carries one in Fallout.

Fallout 3
Sledgehammers are large melee weapons in Fallout 3. They are affected by the Melee Damage Bonus from Strength. Presumably they are also useful for hammering things too. It consists of a large piece of wood attached to a large and heavy weight.

Locations

 * Sledgehammers may be found on random Raiders and Super Mutant Brutes across the Wastelands.

Sledgehammers can also be found in the following locations:
 * Megaton, Lucas Simms' house.
 * They are typical armament (sometimes alongside frag grenades) on Melee-outfitted Super Mutant Brutes.
 * On the shelf of the weapons shop in Rivet City.
 * On a workbench in Tepid Sewer
 * There are 17 of them collected as one object in the Jefferson Memorial, after finishing Broken Steel.

Variants

 * The Tenderizer - A slightly more powerful version of the Sledgehammer. It was originally planned to have a unique object effect, reducing enemy DR by 5 per strike. This effect can be viewed in the GECK, but was cut from the final game.
