Abstract

A handle for hand-held tools, particularly files, that have an end portion (3) for insertion into the handle (1). The handle includes at least two parts (4, 5) which are separated in the insertion direction of the end portion of the tool and includes end-portion guides (6). One guide has the form of a hole (6) in one handle part (4). A surface on the guide in the other handle part (5) intended for coaction with the end portion (3) of the tool is displaced laterally in relation to a corresponding surface in the hole (6). The two handle parts (4, 5) are resiliently movable relative to one another, to permit reduction in the displacement between the surfaces in conjunction with inserting the end portion (3) of the tool into the handle (1). The end portion of the tool is automatically clamped firmly in the handle as the handle parts tend to spring back to their original positions.
