Provided is a striking tool that does not drive a striking element in an unloaded state. The striking tool (100) has: a striking element (151); a cylinder (147) that houses the striking element (151) and moves reciprocally; an air chamber (153); and a holding section (132) that holds the cylinder (147) and can be placed at a predetermined first position and second position. The striking tool (100) has a discharge control mechanism that, in the state of the holding section (132) being placed at the second position, discharges the air within the air chamber (153) out of the air chamber via an opening (200) formed at the cylinder (147). |
