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.
The head attaches to the handle with a blind threaded connection instead of a through-hole, leaving a flat top you can strike with the same feel and force as the sides.
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.
