A handle is applicable to a wide variety of apparatuses, equipment and devices found in industry, commerce, in the home, or for exercise or recreational purposes. The handle may be fashioned integrally with the apparatus or as a retrofit attachment therefor. In using the handle, the person's hand is inserted through an opening and into a chamber formed between the inner and outer walls of the handle. The palm of the person's hand substantially rests on the convex inner surface of an inner wall of the handle, while the back of the person's hand substantially confronts the concave inner surface of the outer wall. With this arrangement, the user's hand is maintained substantially in a curved natural "at rest" position, rather than being tightly closed, so that a forceful grip is no longer necessary. As a result, the human effort and energy required to manipulate or control the associated apparatus, equipment or device is substantially reduced, thereby substantially reducing the fatigue normally associated therewith. Moreover, in certain applications (such as portable power tools) the handles provide an enhanced safety feature.
