Abstract
A handle to be gripped when applying torque to hand tools employed in connection with fasteners such as screws, nuts and bolts, or for other uses, has a good, advantageous hand 'feel' through the provision of a hollow body rigidified by an internal core, with the outer body having sufficient pliability to conform to the shape and size of the palm during each application of squeezing pressure. Special tread means on the tubular body augments its anti-slip characteristics, and the material forming the body well adapts it for the inclusion of an improved and convenient storage for bits.
