A hand tool is any tool that is not a power tool – that is, one powered by hand (manual labour) rather than by an engine.

Some examples of hand tools are garden forks, secateurs, rakes, hammers, spanners, pliers, screwdrivers and chisels.

A drill is a tool fitted with a cutting tool attachment or driving tool attachment, usually a drill bit or driver bit, used for boring holes in various materials or fastening various materials together with the use of fasteners.

The attachment is gripped by a chuck at one end of the drill and rotated while pressed against the target material.

The tip, and sometimes edges, of the cutting tool does the work of cutting into the target material.

This may be slicing off thin shavings (twist drills or auger bits), grinding off small particles (oil drilling), crushing and removing pieces of the workpiece (SDS masonry drill), countersinking, counterboring, or other operations.

Many types of knives are used as tools, such as the utility knife carried by soldiers, the pocket knife carried by hikers and the hunting knife used by hunters.

Knives are also used as a traditional or religious implement, such as the kirpan.

Some types of knives are used as weapons, such as daggers or switchblades.

Some types of knives are used as sports equipment (e.g., throwing knives).

Knives are also used in agriculture, food harvesting etc.; the sickle, the scythe and even the combine harvester are knives.

A measuring instrument is a device for measuring a physical quantity.

In the physical sciences, quality assurance, and engineering, measurement is the activity of obtaining and comparing physical quantities of real-world objects and events.

Established standard objects and events are used as units, and the process of measurement gives a number relating the item under study and the referenced unit of measurement.

Measuring instruments, and formal test methods which define the instrument's use, are the means by which these relations of numbers are obtained.

All measuring instruments are subject to varying degrees of instrument error and measurement uncertainty.
