Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved ergonomic handle that comprises an elongated member having a distal end, a proximal end, a first portion adjacent to the distal end, a second portion adjacent to the proximal end, and a middle portion disposed between the first portion and the second portion defining a grip. A hand supported implement is attached to the distal end of the elongated member, and the second portion is aligned along an axis and comprises a forearm support member. The middle portion forms an angle of substantially at least ninety degrees to the axis, and a barrier is formed at a junction between the first portion and the middle portion for inhibiting the handle from slipping out of a hand. A user grips the middle portion of the elongated member with his or her hand and places his or her forearm on the forearm support member.
