Angico is a tropical wood known for it's density and heavy weight.  It makes an excellent substitute for Lignum Vitae, the traditional mallet wood . The head is turned from a solid block of wood and the handle extends all the way through the head and is secured with a wedged joint at the bottom. Unlike Lignum Vitae, Angico is not prone to cracking and checking in North American climates. Made in Brazil
Protective wax coating.

Some of these mallets come to us with small cosmetic checks in the wood head. These are perfectly good mallets and you can expect to get a full useful life out of them. However, we feel that they cannot be sold at full price ($25.95) so we offer them here at a significant savings. Quantities are limited and sometimes unavailable so if this looks like a good deal to you don't hesitate.
