Craftool® Rawhide Mallet

Strike with control and confidence using the Craftool® Rawhide Mallet, available in 10 oz and 20 oz options to suit different tooling preferences and project demands. Featuring a contoured beechwood handle and a durable water buffalo rawhide head, this mallet delivers a firm yet forgiving strike with a slight “give” that helps reduce tool chatter, softens impact on stamped surfaces, and minimizes the risk of marking polished tool heads. Traditionally paired with classic leathercraft tool sets, it is especially well-suited for tools that benefit from a cushioned strike, including metal stamps, punches, and setters. It offers a balanced combination of weight and durability to reduce hand fatigue during extended work sessions while maintaining effective striking power. For long-term performance, remove the factory coating before use and break in the head, then maintain it by keeping it dry, occasionally reshaping the striking surface, and applying light oil as needed to help prevent brittleness and extend its lifespan.
