I'd give it to kendra by a small margin.
Nth metal only makes her about a 5 to 10 tonner (below Sif) but it does inclease her striking power significantly more. Vastly enhances her senses and she has the speed and agility edge. It also gives her a massive healing factor and the ability to tank quite a bit of damage. Both her and HM have taken beatings from guys far more powerful than Sif and kept on coming due to said HF.

Outlier, Hawkgirl is street level consistently
So's HG. She has beaten MMH, anf fought high meta and low herald tier consistently. Read the character before looking like a fool.
Pre 52 nth metal gives low level super strength

Strength enough to do this

Stremgth enough to knock open doors that need explosives to do

She doesnt need help to take on super strong opponents and kill them. Here on issue 44 she easily snapped the neck of Rhinoman

Durability
In issue 38 some enemies blow up a building to get to them.

Despite an entire building exploding when everyone else inside was killed they were briefly stunned/KOd.

And that isnt counting the healing factor it gives

And much more
And she retains the enhancements Nth metal give her even whennshes been separated from it duento the length of her exposure

dont know too many street levelers who can casually rip metal bars of cells they are locked in (which is what she did a page or so after this)
Almost all of that stuff has been replicated by Batman. He punched and kicked huge cracks into a window that needs a bazooka just to make even a single little crack.

That's a step above getting through a door that "needs some kind of explosive to get through".

5 blows to put a crack in bazzoka proof glass <<<<<< one blow to blast open a door that requires an explosion to open it.
For that matter explosion >> bazooka impact
Both are BTW below ripping metal bars off prison doors or tearing doors off cars in one fluid motion (both of which hawkgirl has done)
Batman cant lift 3 or 4 tons HG can and has.
Bats cant heal from fatal wounds quickly adain Kendra has
Bats can't withstand intense heat or cold HG can fly in space with only an air supply because she can.
She isnt Street level and on feats for the most part is above Sif. Sif is stronger but with a nth metal mace she has much greater striking power. Batman beating her is PIS like him beating Grundy
