How do I care for the hickory handle?

Regularly inspect the handle for cracks, wipe it down, and apply a wood sealant or oil to maintain its condition.

Can I use this mallet for heavy-duty tasks?

What should I do if the rubber face gets damaged?

Store the mallet in a dry place to protect the wood handle from moisture and extreme temperatures.
