A power hand tool body has a barrel with a depending skirt portion from which depends an elongated handle. Elongated grooves are formed in opposite sides of the skirt portion and extend between forward and rearward ends thereof, the grooves being part-cylindrical in transverse cross-section and having rectangular cross-section neck portions opening at the sides of the skirt. A hollow tubular grip formed of flexible and resiliently stretchable material has an end portion with part-cylindrical attachment members extending laterally and inwardly from opposite sides thereof so that, when the grip is slipped over the handle, the end portion may be stretched to insert the attachment members respectively into ends of the grooves for retaining the grip in place.

1. A hand grip for a hand tool comprising:a hollow generally tubular body extending along a first axis and having a pair of spaced-apart flanges at an end portion thereof respectively extending laterally toward each other,each flange being elongated in a direction substantially parallel to a second axis inclined with respect to the first axis and having a first thickness along its entire length,each flange including at least one attachment member extending laterally therefrom toward the other flange only adjacent to an end thereof,each attachment member being elongated in a direction substantially parallel to the second axis and having a second thickness along its entire length substantially greater than the first thickness,the attachment members and adjacent portions of the flanges being flexibly and resiliently stretchable relative to the body in directions generally parallel to the second axis. 2. The grip of claim 1, wherein attachment members are disposed on opposite sides of the end portion. 3. The grip of claim 1, wherein the attachment members are four in number. 4. The grip of claim 3, wherein two attachment members are disposed on each of opposite sides of the end portion. 5. The grip of claim 1, wherein each of the attachment members is part-cylindrical in shape. 6. The grip of claim 5, wherein each flange is substantially rectangular in transverse cross section. 7. The grip of claim 1, wherein the entire tubular body is formed of a flexible and resiliently stretchable material. 8. In combination:a hand tool having a body including a handle extending along a first axis and a barrel extending from the handle along a second axis inclined with respect to the first axis,the body having elongated recesses formed therein adjacent to a junction between the barrel and the handle,each recess opening at an end of the body and at a side of the body and having a longitudinal axis extending substantially parallel to the second axis;each recess having a cross-sectional share alone its entire length which includes an outer portion of a first thickness opening at a side of the body and an inner portion of a second thickness greater than the first thickness, anda grip including a hollow generally tubular body extending substantially parallel to the first axis and having a pair of spaced-apart flanges at an end portion thereof each extending longitudinally substantially parallel to the second axis and sized and shaped to be received in an outer portion of an adjacent recess,each flange including at least one attachment member extending laterally therefrom and elongated in a direction substantially parallel to the second axis and sized and shaped to be received only in an inner portion of an adjacent recess,the attachment members and adjacent portions of the flanges being flexibly and resiliently stretchable relative to the tubular body in directions generally parallel to the second axisthe grip being disposable in a mounted condition wherein the attachment members are respectively receivable in the recesses only from the ends of the hand tool body when the handle is received in the tubular body of the grip. 9. The combination of claim 8, wherein the recesses include two continuous grooves respectively formed in opposite sides of the hand tool body and each extending between front and rear end surfaces on the hand tool body. 10. The combination of claim 9, wherein each of the grooves includes a portion part-cylindrical in transverse cross sectional shape. 11. The combination of claim 8, wherein the tubular body of the grip is formed of a flexible and resilient cushioning material. 12. The combination of claim 11, wherein the attachment members include members respectively disposed on opposite sides of the end portion. 13. The combination of claim 12, in the attachment members include two members on each of opposed sides of the end portion. 14. A method of mounting a grip on a handle of a hand tool having a barrel portion from which t he handle extends and recesses opening at ends and sides of the barrel portion, the method comprising:providing a hollow generally tubular grip extending along a first axis and having a flexible resiliently stretchable end portion with a pair of spaced-apart flanges thereon each extending longitudinally substantially parallel to a second axis inclined with respect to the first axis wherein each flange includes at least one attachment member extending laterally therefrom and elongated in a direction substantially parallel to the second axis and receivable in one of the recesses only from an end thereof,slipping the grip over the handle, end portion first, until the attachment members are disposed adjacent to the barrel portion, andstretching the end portion of the grip to bring the attachment members respectively into longitudinal alignment with the ends of adjacent recesses, andinserting the attachment members respectively into the recesses from the ends thereof. 15. The method of claim 14, wherein the recesses includes recesses respectively disposed on opposite sides of the barrel portion. 16. The method of claim 15, wherein the providing step includes providing a grip with attachment members respectfully disposed on opposite sides of the end portion of the grip. 17. The method of claim 16, wherein the providing step includes providing a grip with four attachment members including two attachment members on each of the opposite sides of the end portion. 18. The method of claim 14, wherein the stretching step includes stretching the end portion adjacent to one attachment member at a time.
