Abstract: The invention relates to a handle for handling dies rapidly and safely, said handle comprising a grip element (8) connected to a locking device (9) by means of a base plate (7), said locking device fixing to a fixing plate that has already been connected to the die (12). The locking device (9) comprises a body, a group formed by a button (1) fixed to a cradle shaft (3), and balls (2) arranged between said shaft and the inside of the body of the locking device, such that, when pressed, the group acts on the balls (2) in such a way that they are hidden inside the locking body, enabling free insertion into the die fixing plate and removal therefrom. In this way, the user can lock the handle to the die and unlock it from the die with only one hand, while firmly holding the grip element.
