I have turned a couple mallets. I use mine for inletting. The hammer style is lighter at 6 or. It has a curly maple head and walnut handle. On end is flat and the other is domed. $46 delivered in lower 48 states.
The second one is all one piece curly maple. Slight curl. Aqua fortice and oil finish. It weighs in at 10.1 oz I probably use this one more for standard inletting due to the extra weight. $36. Delivered to lower 48
