The momentum and energy is transferred to the nail.
All handy men will tell you that choking a hammer will make you miss the nail.
The effort force is where you are holding the hammer to pull the nail.
The force of the hammer is much greater than the force of the nail. Gravity pulls down the hammer, hits the nail, and the nail forces up, but the force of gravity wins over the force pulling on the nail.
