Ergonomic grips from cold weapons to firearms and tools are the result of a very old development

Abstract

In many cases, mankind has made tools, objects and buildings without having a precise, scientific basis for what they produce. Sometimes the results of guesswork and trial and error worked, sometimes they didn't. This paper analyses and presents a type of handle that fully meets all the current and scientific requirements of ergonomic hand tool design. It meets the requirements of hand tools and handguns developed over thousands of years ago and still used today in unchanged form. Its peculiarity is that its name, known in European languages, is known with a slant from the Hungarian original, but its meaning can only be understood in Hungarian.
