Hand tool, any of the tools used by craftsmen in manual operations, such as cutting, chiseling, sawing, filing, or forging. Auxiliary tools, often required as aids to shaping tools, include tools such as a hammer to drive nails and a vice to hold them.

A craftsman may also use tools that facilitate precise measurement: rules, dividers, squares, and others. Power tools—typically handheld motor-powered tools such as an electric drill or electric saw—perform many of the older manual operations and thus may be considered hand tools.

In addition to the more specialized hand tools listed here, we also carry hammers, mallets, rulers, screwdrivers, pliers, hacksaws, coping saws, spirit levels, knives, tape measures, spanners, sockets, and much more.
