A fastening tool can be held by a single hand and can obviate the necessity of application of strong force when fastening sheets of paper together. The fastening tool has a construction in which a placing table configured to move only in a vertical direction is provided at an inner upper portion of a base member, a paper holding member configured to move in a vertical direction is disposed above the placing table, a handle member is mounted on the base member so as to rotate relative thereto about a position lying near a rear end thereof, and a portion of the handle member which lies inside and further rearwards than a central portion of the handle member is formed into a pressing portion, whereby an upper surface of a rear portion of the paper holding member is pressed down directly by the pressing portion. |
