stemmed
A non-standard adjectival use describing something as being provided with a stem (a long, thin handle or stalk). This usage is very rare and is not considered correct Standard German.
Für den Cocktail brauchen wir die Gläser, die stiel sind, nicht die normalen Becher.
For the cocktail, we need the glasses that are stemmed, not the regular cups.
The adjective 'stiel' (stemmed) is derived directly from the noun 'der Stiel' (the stem, e.g., on a glass, a flower, or a tool). It describes that something has such a stem.
Der Apfel hatte noch einen kleinen Stiel.
The apple still had a small stem.
The adjectival use of 'stiel' (stemmed) is very colloquial and not part of Standard German. You may hear it sometimes, but you should avoid it in written language or formal contexts.
Gib mir mal die Weingläser, die stiel sind.
Hand me the wine glasses that are stemmed.
When 'stiel' (stemmed) is used as an adjective, it almost always comes after the noun in a predicative function. Using it before the noun, e.g. 'ein stieles Glas', is unusual and sounds unnatural.
Ich suche die Sektgläser, die besonders hoch und stiel sind.
I'm looking for the champagne glasses that are especially tall and stemmed.
shaft
Schaft is the appropriate standard German word for the long part of a tool. Stiel is not a correct standard German noun in the input and therefore cannot simply be used as an equivalent term here. For a hammer, use Schaft.
„Der Stiel“ ist für den langen Teil dieses Hammers kein korrektes hochdeutsches Substantiv.
“Stiel” is not a correct Standard German noun for the long part of this hammer.
Der Schaft dieses Hammers ist lang genug für einen sicheren Griff.
The shaft of this hammer is long enough for a secure grip.
