The disclosed platform for interchangeable handles for hand tools allows a user to attach handles custom fitted to their hand to any corresponding hand tool, and likewise allows different users to share a hand tool by detaching the first user's handles and then attaching a second user's handles. Various embodiments for connecting interchangeable handles to hand tools are shown. Additionally, a fluid reservoir disposed within an interchangeable handle and locking mechanisms for keeping the interchangeable handles attached to the hand tool are disclosed.
