A Rawhide Mallet is essential in any Jewellery workshop to shape and form metal leaving no marks.

The Mallet head is made using tight rolls of hide (leather) soaked in a resin or Shellac for hardening and put on a wood handle.

Before use – the mallet has to be conditioned. We recommend the following .

Put in a vise and rasp the hardening compound off – the ends can be done with a coarse sander . When removed ,soak head in water for an hour , dry off and rasp again .
After this you will not see any spirals of the leather but rather like the inner side of a piece of leather and will be a soft surface. As it is used it can be trimmed up accordingly.
