  • Patent number: 7537532
    Abstract: An implement for swinging in one's hands has an implement body. A handle extends from the implement body. The handle consists of two elongate handle members that generally abut against the other along substantially the length of the handle members. The handle members have inwardly sloped, converging sidewalls along at least one side of the handle where the handle members abut to form a longitudinal groove along substantially the length of the at least one side of the handle. The converging sidewalls are at least one of convex arcuate or planar surfaces. A method of swinging the implement may be performed by gripping the handle with both hands so that the hands are in a closely adjacent or touching adjacent position with at least the tip of one or more fingers lie generally in or along the longitudinal groove. The implement is then swung while holding the implement in both hands.
