A paint-pot/kettle includes a manually detachable/attachable multi-use tool-handle. The paint-pot/kettle holds substances, such as paint, for the use with a brush and/or mini-roller. The paint-pot/kettle includes: angled/magnetized brush-rest, wiping-blade, mini-roller-glide, mini-roller-holder, belt-clip/loops, removable/replaceable plastic pot-liners to line the internal of the paint-pot/kettle, ergonomically-designed plastic handle (referred to as the multi-use tool-handle), and male component of the manual-locking system to attach/detach the multi-use tool-handle from the paint-pot/kettle. The multi-use tool-handle has multi-use functions including: mallet to close paint tins, paint tin openers, mini-roller cleaning-aid, shark-tooth brush cleaning-aid, scraping blade, beer bottle opener, female component of the female-to-male locking-system designed to attach the multi-use tool-handle to pot/kettle.

A hammer tool including a single body and over-molded with one or more materials configured to improve the performance of the hammer is disclosed. The hammer may be formed with a single piece hammer head defining a cavity at least partially filled with a flowable material, such as steel shot. The striking surfaces of the hammer may be reinforced by a woven fabric or fiber reinforced polymers. The resulting hammer body and cavity has fewer or no joints or seams for shot to escape and provides material properties to be optimized in different areas of the hammer over-mold.

A damping return hammer includes a grip handle, a first elastic damping arm, a second elastic damping arm, and a hammer head provided at the fronts of the first elastic damping arm and the second elastic damping arm, respectively. The front ends of the first elastic damping arm and the second elastic damping arm are upper and lower respectively, and extend at a certain distance forward and are in the same longitudinal section. The two hammer heads are provided at the front ends of the first elastic damping arm and the second elastic damping arm respectively. A gap is between the two hammer heads and is fitted therein with a rubber energy-storage cushion block.

A force limiting device comprises a housing defining an axially extending chamber containing a working fluid. A force transmitting member may be mounted for linear reciprocable movement inside the chamber under the action of external loads. An axial array of plates is floatingly disposed in the chamber between the force transmitting member and an end wall of the chamber. At rest, each plate is spaced from an adjacent plate by a gap occupied by the working fluid. When the force transmitting member is displaced towards the array of plates, the fluid in the chamber causes the plates to be successively pushed against each other, thereby causing some of the fluid to be squeezed out from between the plates.

A hand tool has a handle, a first working portion, and a second working portion. The hand is elongated and has a top. The first working portion and the second working portion are detachably connected respectively with two ends of the top of the handle. Each one of the first working portion and the second working portion is made of a material different from a material of the handle.
