Abstract
To provide a striking tool that offers excellent operability in various positions. [Solution] The striking tool comprises a tool holder, a motor, a drive mechanism, a tool body, a handle, and an operating member. The tool holder extends along the drive shaft. The drive mechanism drives the tip tool linearly along the drive shaft in response to the motor's drive. The tool body houses the tool holder, motor, and drive mechanism. The handle is connected to the tool body and includes a gripping portion extending in a first direction intersecting the drive shaft. The operating member is located on the front side of the gripping portion and is manually operated by the user to signal the motor to start. The gripping portion has a first end closer to the tool body and a second end further away from the tool body in the first direction intersecting the drive shaft. The operating member is positioned to include at least a central position of the gripping portion that is substantially equidistant from the first end and the second end, respectively, in the first direction.
