Mallet

created by Webster 1913

(thing) by Tsarren (6.6 y) (print)   ?   (I like it!) Wed Mar 08 2000 at 7:41:03

A stick that is used to strike percussion instruments. The head of a mallet can be made of rubber, plastic, wrapped yarn, wood, felt, or metal. The various types are usable only on certain instruments. If you ever use brass mallets on a marimba or xylophone I will personally hunt you down and kill you.

Mal"let (?), n. [F. maillet, dim. of mail. See Mall a beetle.]

A small maul with a short handle, -- used esp. for driving a tool, as a chisel or the like; also, a light beetle with a long handle, -- used in playing croquet.
