SIK Flo M Standard

The SIK Flo M Standard is a wing-style mallet built off the Flo line, described by golfsupport.com as SIK Golf's newest creation. Per that outlet, the M stands for Modified, and the head is 10% smaller and 70 grams lighter than the original Flo C, a downsizing that puts it in an odd spot for a mallet: golfsupport.com notes it's weighted to match the company's most popular blade, the PRO, and reports a high moment of inertia paired with a low, stretched-out center of gravity.

Construction, per the same source, is 100% CNC milled from 303 stainless steel bars, finished in satin, with the SIK script flowing at 45 degrees across the base and the Pro, Kinematics, and made in the USA lettering picked out in red. golfsupport.com also lists neck options, plumber's, slant, swept, or double bend, and notes the aiming line sits on the top line for three of those options, moving to the back flange on the plumber's neck version. A chrome stepless shaft comes standard, and the putter carries SIK's patented Descending Loft Technology.

On feel, the Community and golfsupport.com's own review land on the same note from different directions: golfsupport.com writes that SIK Golf's claim is that it's a mallet that feels like a blade, and we totally agree, while Community commentary separately praises it for feeling like a blade despite being a mallet, along with the sound and feel off the face. Both readings point at the same tension in the M Standard's design, a mallet-sized head built and weighted to play like something smaller.
