top handle
Bag's carrying grip
A top handle is a grip positioned on the upper surface of an object, designed for carrying or maneuvering from above.
The term appears most often with bags—a top handle bag has a structured handle that allows carrying by hand rather than over the shoulder: She grabbed her top handle and headed to the meeting.
Chainsaws and other power tools may also feature a top handle for overhead cutting work.
