Abstract: A handle grip and process for making such handle grip. The handle grip comprises a cording arranged in a spaced knotted configuration around and along a handle. The spaced knotted cording is first entirely covered with a permeable woven layer. The permeable woven layer is covered with a hardener that permeates the woven layer and secures the woven layer and cording to the handle in water-tight fashion.

Abstract: A striking apparatus has a head composed of fore, mid, and aft portions with transition portions existing at the fore-mid and aft-mid junctions. The fore portion has a striking face the apex of which is a piecing edge. The striking face tapering into splitting edges away from the piercing edge. The fore portion having two sides on each of which a channel disposed for receiving the prongs of a provided tool. The longitudinal shoulders prevent the head from becoming embedded into a struck surface past the fore portion and act as fulcra for the user to more-easily retrieve the striking apparatus by lifting the striking apparatus handle.

Abstract: An apparatus for protecting a tool from an overstrike event. The apparatus generally includes a handle, a tool head, and a collar configuration with two or more collar members adapted to separably surround the handle. The collar members are affixed to the outer surface of the handle by a first adhesive. The tool head is placed over the handle and collar members and is affixed to the outer surfaces of the collar members with a second adhesive. The tool head secures the collar members which protect the handle around its circumference in the event of an overstrike event in any direction.
