Antique wood mallet hammer handmade used farmhouse decor carpenter cabinet maker tools

• Carpentry Mallets: Mallets with large wooden heads are used by carpenters to tap joints into place without marking the timber or damaging chisel handles, unlike metal hammers. 
• Serving Mallets: One specific type shown (second from left) appears to be a serving mallet, historically used in maritime contexts to help wrap or "serve" a rope. 
• Bossing Mallets: Other forms, such as those with a round or square head, can be used for shaping soft metals like copper and aluminum, a process called bossing. 
• General Purpose: The varied shapes allow for different applications, from gentle persuasion in woodworking to more heavy-duty tasks like driving in pegs or splitting wood.
