Abstract
A two-member joint structure driver of a driving tool includes a striker and an engagement member. A channel to guide the striker and a release channel for the engaging section of the engagement member to pass through are shifted in a thickness direction of the driver. The width of the guide channel is expanded, and wider striker can be used without expanding the release channel. The cost of the driver can be reduced by having the two-member joint structure.
