That sounds like a very tall tale. *Maybe* I could believe a regular
hammer, but a sledge hammer? C'mon. 

Anyway, according to the website the canister is made from polyethelene
not Delrin. Either way they still have higher impact strength than
Acryilic. But the sledge hammer thing sounds a liitle far fetched
