Q: Can you use this mallet by cradling the head in your palm?
Yes, the head can be cradled in your palm for more precise control of each blow, or you can hold it by the handle for more conventional use.

With a solid brass head, a walnut handle and a simple, refined profile, this is an elegant and effective mallet. Designed for work that requires more finesse than power, it can be held by the handle or used with the head cradled in your palm, allowing you to more precisely control the force of blows. The head is attached to the handle with a blind threaded connection rather than a through-hole, which leaves it with a flat top you can use as a striking surface with the same feel and force as the sides.
The small mallet, with a 12 oz, 1 1/4" diameter head, allows a more delicate touch for fine details. The large mallet, with an 18 oz, 1 5/8" diameter head, is ideal for sculpting and carving. Each is just under 6" long overall.

The small mallet, with a 12 oz head, suits fine detail work where a delicate touch matters, while the large brass mallet's 18 oz head gives you more mass for sculpting and carving; choose the large one if you're removing more material.
It's turned from walnut, shaped to a simple, refined profile for a comfortable grip.
