Alltools Geelong is your local Medalist stockist for traditional striking tools, supplying timber mallets for woodworkers and carpenters. Our Medalist range sits within Hammers, featuring Mallets such as the wooden carpenter’s mallet — a classic hand tool for joiners, cabinetmakers and DIY woodworkers across Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula and the Surf Coast.
A wooden mallet delivers a softer, controlled blow that drives chisels and assembles joints without bruising timber or damaging tool handles the way a steel hammer would. The Medalist carpenter’s mallet is shaped for a comfortable, balanced swing, making it a staple on the bench for mortising, dowelling and gentle assembly work. Woodworkers and hobbyists throughout Torquay, Ocean Grove, Lara and Greater Geelong keep one within reach for chisel work and fit-up tasks. Pop into the store and our team can point you to the right striking tool for your project.
Visit our Geelong store at 124 Fyans Street, South Geelong for hands-on advice, or browse our Medalist range online with delivery across eastern and southern Australia. Trade accounts welcome.
Medalist FAQs
Why use a wooden mallet instead of a hammer?
A wooden mallet spreads the blow over a larger, softer face, so it drives chisels and assembles joints without splitting timber or damaging wooden tool handles. It gives a controlled strike ideal for woodworking.
What is a carpenter’s mallet used for?
It’s used for driving bench chisels when cutting mortises and joints, tapping parts together during glue-up, and any task where you want a firm but gentle, non-marring blow on timber.
How do I look after a wooden mallet?
Keep it dry and out of prolonged damp to prevent the head splitting, and avoid striking metal or hard fasteners with it. Used on timber and chisel handles as intended, a good mallet lasts for years.
