I prefer a carver’s style mallet for chisel work.  With properly sharpened chisels, a medium weight mallet does the job without excessive fatigue to the craftsman. 

Early mallets I owned had smooth lacquered handles that had to be held tightly to prevent them from slipping.  A long day of chopping mortises or dovetails would leave my hand and wrist sore.  My solution was to tape the handle with sports tape like a hockey stick.  This allows me to use a relaxed grip with a lot less fatigue. 

We use resin impregnated maple heads, making for a very tough head that will give you years of use.  I think you will be pleasantly surprised at how comfortable my mallet is over the course of a long day in the shop.

  • Resin impregnated Maple heads.

  • The handle is inserted through the head, and is glued and screwed in place with two #12 by 1-1/2" coarse threaded screws that straddle the joint line.

  • The regular mallet head is 4 inches long. The resin impregnated maple head is turned on a lathe until it meets our desired weight standards; thus, the diameter measurement can vary slightly from mallet to mallet.  

  •  The overall length of the regular mallet with the handle attached is 9-1/2 inches long.

  • The overall weight of the regular mallet with handle is between 350 (12.3 oz) and 400 grams (14.1 oz)
  • Handle shape and hockey grip tape make it comfortable to hold with a relaxed grip.  We tape the handle for you.

  • Slight taper of the head improves the striking angle of the head.

Big bang.

This is a traditional look and feel. The weight for me is perfect. For a normal day at the bench it works great, all day long. The maple is resin impregnated and the handle runs top to bottom. I do recommend and would purchase again however I dont believe I'll need to.
