Abstract: A handgrip for a torque tool, such as a screwdriver, provides enhanced tool torque capabilities and improved driving capabilities. The handgrip has a top or free-end segment available for low-torque twirling action using the fingertips, and a bottom or working-end segment that together with the top segment is grasped in one's hand for high torque application. The handgrip has the configuration approaching that of a three-sided bell that provides finger holds, bearing surfaces, and outlying lobes which alone or in combination improve torque capabilities and/or driving capabilities for the effort applied.
