Abstract
An object of the invention is to provide an impact tool improved in vibration-proofing structure of a handle. A representative impact tool has a tool body and handle. The handle has a handle body and pair of grips that extend in a direction crossing an axial direction of a tool accessory, designed to be held by user's right and left hands. The handle body has a first part to which the grips are connected in a fixed manner and a second part that is connected to the tool body in a fixed manner. The first part is supported against the tool body via an elastic member and is allowed to move with respect to the tool body and the second part while being biased by an elastic force of the elastic member. A current supply cable, supplying current to a motor, is installed on the second part.
