Mallet
tool for striking the workpiece or another tool with a relatively large head
A mallet is a tool for woodworking. Usually, it is used together with a chisel and for transferring force, much like hitting a nail with a hammer. Some tools used to play musical instruments, like drum sticks are also called mallets.
