pinch grip
Thumb-finger compression hold
A pinch grip is a way of holding something by squeezing it between the thumb and fingers rather than wrapping the hand around it.
The term appears in strength training for exercises that develop thumb and finger power: Pinch grip deadlifts work muscles that regular grips don't.
It also describes how tools or objects are held delicately or precisely.
