I made this out of necessity. I needed a mallet to use with my chisels and didn’t have one. I made this one from what I remember my Great Uncle had. The wood is Cherry and Maple, I fabricated the handle out of Maple and made a Cherry wedge to hold it in the head. I then covered the faces with rawhide to protect the face.

That is sweet. Looks like a good wacker. Did you put in any lead weights?
Nice job,
