Overview
The SG SG01AC020018 pairs a wood head with a wood handle, weighing about 0.33 kg (roughly 12 ounces), which points to a woodworking mallet built for chisel work and joint assembly rather than metal-on-metal striking. It holds a 4.3 rating from 923 reviews.
Both the head and the handle are listed as wood, which is unusual for a hammer and points instead toward a joiner's mallet built to strike chisels and assemble joints without marring wood surfaces. At about 0.33 kilograms it sits well under the weight of a standard claw hammer, so it trades striking force for control. Treat it as a finishing or assembly tool rather than a general-purpose hammer.

- Wood head and wood handle construction
- Weighs about 0.33 kg, roughly 12 ounces
- Sold as a single piece
Who it's for
Fits woodworkers and hobbyists doing chisel work, joint assembly or light tapping where a non-marring wood face helps. Not a fit for framing, demolition or driving large nails, tasks that call for a heavier steel-head hammer.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Wood head reduces marring on wood surfaces
- Light build eases repeated tapping motions
- Light weight limits force for heavy joints
- Wood won't hold up to metal striking
Performance notes
A wood head strikes with less peak force than steel but spreads impact more evenly, which is why joiner's mallets favor it for chisel work over metal-on-metal contact. At 0.33 kilograms the head doesn't carry much momentum on its own, so results depend more on swing speed than mass, better suited to control than raw driving force.
