Import Mallet/mauls

[Boriqua]

I just picked up a nice looking and functional Maul from Wrising Industries. I think they are made in china but have now done basket weave on 3 holsters and like it very much. Not as sweet looking as the Barry king or Leather Burnishers but about 20 bucks cheaper shipped.

I know this is an older thread, but I just found this company online as well.  You can buy from their website or they also sell on Ebay.  I think I'm going to purchase a 2 and a 3 pound maul from them.  Poly heads with leather handles.  They look nice in the pictures I thought.  I'll post on this thread again once I get them.

I need a step up from a 28oz for some bigger hole punches and the like, I think maybe a 48 will do it.

Thanks for the tip with the backstory always cool hearing the experience, as it matters in my world!

Call Barry King, get one of the 96oz mallets.  I love mine, it don't bounce, but don't use it on a flimsy table.  When I got it from BK years ago it looked big and heavy but now it just does great whacking things.

I got one of those Thor hammers a while back off the forum here. At first wasn't sure what to use it for until I start punching slots in thick belts, now I use it all the time for task like that.

Years ago a friend joined The Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers, commonly referred to as REME, which is the British army's engineering division. He remembers the sergeant instructor giving him some advice - 'Don't force it lad, get a bigger 'ammer!'

Ok...so the two mauls that I'd ordered from wrising.com arrived yesterday.  A two pounder and a 3 pounder.  They both have stacked leather handles and nylon heads.  The 2lb maul cost $50 and they had a sale on the 3lb maul for $30.  So about $80 all told and shipping was included.  Looking at them, they are indistinguishable from my 24oz Barry King maul which is made of the same materials.  Of course, time will tell how well they hold up.  But hey....they're mallets...I can't imagine anything that could go wrong that couldn't easily be fixed.
