A hand tool. The hand tool includes the hand tool includes a shank, a handle attached to the shank, and a finishing element attached to the shank. The finishing element is attached to the shank by one or more fasteners. The fasteners extend substantially through a hole in the finishing element and an aligned hole in the shank to affix the finishing element to the shank. The fastener has a first expanded end situated in a countersink in an exposed surface of the shank.

Hand tools which have an ergonomic using a palm handle and finger handle designs which achieve mechanical efficiency and ease of use. The ergonomic handle is compatible with the muscle movements of an operator using a hand tool reducing muscle strain and pain. Optionally, the palm and finger handles can have ergonomically designed cushions. In an embodiment, the finger handle can have a finger set which has a forward finger flange, a tail finger flange and a pinky grip. The ergonomic handle can also use a relief washer system to achieve a smooth low frictional resistance cutting stroke.

A hand-held member includes: a hand-held part main body; and a covering material that includes a resin material having viscoelasticity in a temperature range of 10 to 40° C. and covers the hand-held part main body. A hand-held-type article includes: the hand-held member described above; and a main body that is joined adjacent to the hand-held member and functions when the hand-held member is gripped.

A massage gun and a massage gun extension arm having a handle end that can extend through a first bend and further extend to terminate at an attachment end. Various attachment mechanisms may be used to connect the massage gun extension arm to the massage gun, or to a separate massage tool. The massage gun extension arm can include a telescoping adjustment along the portion between the bend and the handle end, or between the bend and the attachment end. In some embodiments, the arm, between the bend and the handle end, can include a disconnection, the disconnection being in the form of a pivoting bend or in a complete disconnection of parts. This disconnection allows for ease of transport, with the massage gun extension arm stored and carried in a relatively small footprint.

A safety utility knife includes a resin-made grip part, a blade projecting from the grip part, and a resin-made head part arranged at a tip of the projecting blade. The blade is formed with a through-hole so that a resin-made coupling part lying within the through-hole couples together the grip part and the head part that are made of resin. Since the safety utility knife of the present invention allows the three resin-made parts to be joined together, it can be manufactured easily and at low cost using a 1-gate type mold. Also, there is no unnecessary increase in the blade thickness, preventing an increased cutting resistance and a rough cut end from occurring.
