hand tools
Grip-powered workshop gear
Hand tools are implements operated by manual force rather than motors or engines—hammers, screwdrivers, wrenches, pliers, saws.
The term distinguishes them from power tools: The job was slow because we only had hand tools.
Hand tools require skill and physical effort but offer precision and portability that powered equipment sometimes can't match.
