A handle cap designed for use on a tool handle is disclosed. The handle cap has a cavity which forms an annular rim portion and an inner face. The annular rim portion of the cap is sleeved over an end of the tool handle so that the tool handle protrudes into the cavity and is abutted by the inner face of the cavity. The handle cap includes a tapered, projecting end portion extending outwardly in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the tool handle. The end portion has a channel formed therein which extends through the end portion and within which is fixed an elongated, permanent magnet. By using a handle cap which includes a projecting end portion as described, it is possible to use a longer and more powerful magnet than was possible in previous devices.
