Nope, no new 3 lb hammer, just a new handle.  I can't throw the head 
away as it was my wife's grandfather's hammer.  When I inherited it from 
her father it didn't have a handle then either.

Reminds me of the story about someone trying to sell George Washington's 
hatchet.  Claimed it was the original hatchet.  The handle had only been 
changed 5 times and the head twice.  :-)
