A striking tool restricting movement of an intermediate member toward a striker reliably prevents no-load strokes. A hammer drill includes a cylindrical tool holder holding a tip tool, a motor, a piston that reciprocate with rotation from the motor, a striker that reciprocate in cooperation with the piston, an intermediate member reciprocably accommodated in the tool holder between the striker and the tip tool and in contact with a rear end of the tip tool at a normal strike to indirectly transmit a strike from the striker to the tip tool, and at least two ring members that move in a front-rear direction accommodated in the tool holder at a front of the intermediate member between the tool holder and the intermediate member. At least one ring member is made of metal.

A percussion tool is used for performing a chiseling operation on a workpiece with a chisel. The percussion tool comprises a housing including a cylinder portion, a tool holder coupled to the cylinder portion for holding the chisel, and a percussion mechanism including a striker supported for reciprocation in the cylinder portion. The percussion mechanism is configured to impart repeated axial impacts to the chisel with the striker. The percussion tool further comprises a flange between the cylinder portion and the tool holder. Movement of the chisel within the tool holder toward the percussion mechanism is stopped by the flange.
