Handle With Offset Connector

Abstract

An offset connector subdivides a long, slender tool or implement handle. The offset connector may be provided with one or more unitary or replaceable grips. The additional grips serve as secondary or tertiary hand holds that enable more adaptable and capable ergonomic manipulation of the tool or implement. The offset connector is inserted intermediate between a primary handle grip and the tool or implement head, thereby subdividing the long slender tool or implement handle into at least two separate handle segments. Each handle segment is inserted into a handle segment receiver socket, and is affixed therein using a bolt, screw, or other fastener that is longitudinally co-axial with the longitudinal axis of the handle segment. Some embodiments establish fixed spacing between the primary handle, secondary handle, and implement. Other embodiments provide variable spacing therebetween.
