The handle includes a proximal portion, a middle portion, and a distal portion. The distal portion has a distal portion distal end cross section that includes polygonal perimeter line segments joined by intervening perimeter segments. The distal portion has a distal portion proximal end cross section that includes polygonal perimeter line segments joined by intervening perimeter segments. Orientations of the polygonal perimeter line segments of the distal portion distal end are offset rotationally by 15 degrees to 45 degrees around the shank axis relative to the polygonal perimeter line segments of the distal portion proximal end. The distal portion comprises distal portion recesses, which extend from the distal portion proximal end to the distal portion distal end.

A striking hand tool includes a grip component where an external surface has a front arc half and a rear arc half, wherein an area of the grip is smaller in a first cross sectional plane further from a head of the tool than a second plane closer to the head portion. A ρ value of the front arc half in the first cross sectional plane is less than approximately 0.45. A measurement from a first axis to a frontmost point in the first cross sectional plane is between 17.5 mm and 19 mm. A ρ value of the front arc half in the second cross sectional plane is less than approximately 0.5. A measurement from the first axis to a frontmost point in the second cross sectional plane is between 18.5 mm and 20 mm. Methods of manufacturing and striking hand tools having desirous durometer measurements are also disclosed.

A multi-functional wild game tote that functions not only as a lightweight, convenient and compact carrier for one or more game animals such as birds, small mammals and fish harvested in the wild, but also as a multi-purpose tool having numerous interchangeable hunting tools useful when hunting wild game, especially wild turkeys. The carrier function of the wild game tote is provided by an ergonomically designed, elongate, rigid handle member having opposite ends and one or more cords extending through the handle member for carrying the harvested game. The multi-purpose tool function of the wild game tote is provided by hunting tools that are detachably mounted on both ends of the handle member such as a scale for weighing the harvested game, or a blade-sharpening stone for sharpening a hunter's knife. The tote also has hash markings on the handle member that denote the measurement of length.

A system includes a universal handle and a variety of tools selectively secured within the handle. The tools can be tools for grooming or collecting hair, and are especially useful with animals such as household pets. One example tool includes a mat breaker that is adjustable for left handed or right handed use. Another example tool is a fur sweeper tool and a fur accumulator tool. Other tools include deshedders, brushes, and combs.

A method of cleaning a controlled and regulated equipment, the method comprising the steps of: (1) forming a tool handle by removably connecting a first handle portion to a second handle portion; (2) pivotably connecting a tool head frame to the second handle portion; wherein the tool head frame comprises a leading edge opposite a trailing edge and a first side edge opposite a parallel second side edge disposed between the leading and the trailing edge respectively, wherein the leading edge and the trailing edge are non-parallel to each other; (3) positioning the tool head frame in proximity to a tray having at least one compartment, a pad assembly and a cleaning solution, wherein the pad assembly and the cleaning solution are disposed in the at least one compartment; (4) configuring the pad assembly to be movable within the at least one compartment between a first position and a second position; and (5) attaching the tool head hands-free to the pad assembly in the first position or second position and detaching the tool head hands-free from the pad assembly in the second position. The method further comprises the steps of providing a precise amount of cleaning solution within the at least compartment in order to provide accurate saturation and consistent moisture level for each pad within each pad assembly.

A knife and associated guide for the cutting of fibrous batt insulation products, as well as rigid foam board insulation products are described. The knife has a handle and blade, each oriented so as to maximize the ability to pull the blade through the material to be cut, while minimizing the muscular effort and strain required of the user. The guide is configured to easily compress batt insulation products and to be easily moved over the products for improved efficiency.

Certain embodiments are directed to a laryngoscopy device and methods of use thereof, the device having a curved, hollow stylet with a handle and a flexible bougie contained at least partially within the hollow stylet, the bougie being extendable out of the end of the stylet for use in guidance of a hollow endotracheal tube.

A personal defense device arranged to self-orient and enable accurate aim when gripped by a user is provided. The device has a body including upper and lower regions. The upper region includes a transverse index finger loop, a front portion, a rear portion with a storage cavity for a repellant spray container, a spray opening through the upper region, a thumb support, and a top surface. The top surface is above and perpendicular to the transverse loop, which forms an extended sightline for aiming at a potential target. The lower region includes a grip handle providing multi-finger grip below the index finger transverse loop. The transverse loop, multi-finger grip handle and thumb support self-orient the device in the user's hand, and the top surface sightline enables rapid aiming. The upper region front portion can include a contact feature for defensive contact with an attacker and DNA collection.

Disclosed is apparatus for use with a sports stick of the type that has a portion which, in use, is typically covered with a grippable material. The apparatus includes a body of heat shrink material, the body being adapted to receive the portion in spaced-relation and further adapted, upon receipt of heat and when in receipt of the portion, to shrink to a working size that surrounds the portion in close-fitting relation. The body can be provided with features that, at least when the body is shrunk to the working size, renders the body grippable. The features can be apertures.

A handle grip includes a base extension and a top seat. The base extension has a shell, an opening is arranged at a free end of the shell, and an accommodation space is provided in the shell and connected with the opening, the accommodating space can be filled in with liquid or solid materials, and the base extension can be detachably covered by the top seat. So that a user can freely adjust the weight of the handle grip according to the operation requirement of the work on miniature, neither the handle grip will fall down on the workbench easily, nor user will feel burdened when holding the handle grip, so that it will improve the working quality and efficiency.
