A striking implement comprises a handle portion (8) and a striking portion, in which the striking implement is discontinuous in that it comprises two parts (9,10) one part including the striking portion and the other part including the handle portion (8) or a part thereof, the said two parts (9,10) having complementary formations (12,13) which are assembled to overlap axially with a vibration-damping material (11) interposed between and bonded to said formations (12,13), whereby the two parts are inseparably connected together but the vibration-damping material (11) mechanically isolates one from the other.
