Review: Built to last a lifetime. - I recently purchased the Estwing DFH-12 Rubber Mallet - 12 oz Double-Face Hammer with Soft/Hard Tips & Hickory Wood Handle from desertcart, and I can confidently say it’s one of the best tools I’ve added to my collection. This American-made mallet, crafted with Estwing’s renowned quality since 1923, is a game-changer for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts. Its thoughtful design, durability, and versatility make it an absolute standout for a wide range of tasks. The first thing that struck me was the mallet’s impeccable balance and craftsmanship. Weighing 12 ounces, it feels substantial yet lightweight, allowing for precise control without causing fatigue during extended use. The genuine hickory handle, with its 10-1/2-inch curved design and triple-wedge construction, fits comfortably in hand, offering a natural grip that absorbs recoil beautifully. This makes it ideal for prolonged projects like furniture assembly or flooring installation, where comfort is key. The dual-face design is a brilliant feature, with one soft (40 Shore D, red) and one hard (60 Shore D, yellow) tip, both connected by forged steel for durability. This versatility allows seamless transitions between tasks requiring gentle, non-marring taps and those needing a firmer strike. I used it to install vinyl plank flooring, and paired with a tapping block, it effortlessly locked tongue-and-groove pieces into place without damaging the edges. The non-marring faces ensured my materials stayed pristine, which is critical for high-quality finishes. Beyond functionality, the mallet’s build quality is exceptional. The hickory handle feels premium and sturdy, showing no signs of wear even after hours of use. The forged steel core ensures the heads remain securely attached, a testament to Estwing’s reputation for crafting tools that last a lifetime. I also appreciate its aesthetic appeal— the blue , red, and yellow color scheme adds a professional flair to my toolkit. Whether you’re a carpenter, DIYer, or hobbyist, this mallet is a must-have. It excels in sheet metal forming, upholstery, tile setting, and even camping tasks. At its price point, the Estwing DFH-12 delivers unmatched value, blending durability, comfort, and versatility. I wholeheartedly recommend this mallet to anyone seeking a reliable, high-quality tool that performs as beautifully as it looks.
Review: Quality Mallet - I recently used the Estwing Rubber Mallet while installing a floating floor, and it was exactly what I needed to get the job done right. Paired with a hammering block, it helped me tap the planks into place without causing any damage to the flooring. The mallet has a solid, well-balanced feel that provides just the right amount of force without being too heavy. The rubber head is durable and non-marking, which was perfect for protecting the edges of the floorboards during installation. Even after hours of use, the mallet held up beautifully and showed no signs of wear. The handle offers a comfortable grip, making it easy to control, and the weight is ideal for giving enough impact without tiring out my arm. I'm happy I got the wood handle - it has a quality feel and works well to dampen any recoil from hammering. It made the flooring installation process smoother and more efficient. If you’re installing a floating floor or working on any project that requires gentle, controlled force, the Estwing Rubber Mallet is a fantastic tool to have on hand. I highly recommend it for its durability, comfort, and performance.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Which side is hard and which side is soft? They both feel like hard rubber/plastic.**
A: Mine is orange and yellow. The darker, denser orange color is definitely rubber and the lighter yellow color end is a harder plastic and almost see through around the edges. You can tell the difference by rubbing each side in your hand and feeling the texture, weight, and density. I use the harder plastic for assembling metal rack shelving, unfinished furniture assembly, and repairs and the rubber end for assembling cabinets, shelves, and office desks that come with a laminated or stained finish that I don't want to scratch. I hope this info helps you.

**Q: Does this deal-blow mallet have sand or shot in the head, or is it all rubber?**
A: Not a dead blow. Great mallet.

**Q: Is this made in the USA?**
A: Most of the Estwing Sure Strike line is made in China or Taiwan. Vaughn makes an almost identical mallet in the U.S., and replacement faces are easier to find (possible the replacements fit both brands in the 24oz.). I like the 12" fat handles much more on the Estwing than on the 14" Vaughn, but otherwise, the U.S. built Vaughn has my vote. If I used these mallets on the job more than once or twice a month, then I would swap out the handles between the two, and save the Estwing headed one as a backup/loaner.

**Q: What is the size (diameter) of the faces?**
A: Approximately 1.75 inches

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great hammer
*by M***D on August 1, 2025*

This gets used all the time around my shop. Having a no-marring hammer is a must when you work on easily damaged items are stubborn and needs a good whack. Estwing is a time honored traditional brand that has been proudly made in the USA and its quality shows. Functionality? It is a nylon or rubber faced hammer (HAMMER) it functions like it should. You take it and beat things into submission with it. Well worth the money, it will last for many decades to come. Good weight for most uses. Worth it, if anything happened to it, I would be quite put out, then I would buy another one.
