It could be a really useful tool for people with slightly unsteady hand
motion when swinging the hammer. I taught leathercraft at a local
hospital and experienced quite a few hits on the hand with the hammer
when working with quadriplegics. Fortunately, most of them didn't have
sufficient arm power to build up a really heavy swing of the wooden
hammer.

Yup, you're absolutely right. I'm so used to doing stuff for
myself, somehing like that never even occurred to me. I dislike wooden
hammers tho, I like turned mallets, easier (and faster) to make, and I
think easier to use.
