Claim:
An implement for swinging in one's hands comprising: an implement body; a handle extending from the implement body, the handle consisting of two elongate handle members that generally abut against the other along substantially the length of the handle members, the handle members having inwardly sloped, converging sidewalls along each side of the handle where the handle members abut to form a single longitudinal groove along substantially the length of each side of the handle that generally bisects the side of the handle, the converging sidewalls being at least one of convex arcuate or planar surfaces, and wherein the handle has a variation in height represented by M H having a value of from about 0.04 to about 0.3 where M H =|H A −H B |/L, where H A is the height of the handle at a first position and H B is the height of the handle at a second position located at a distance L from the first position, the handle members each decreasing in width and height along the length of each member towards the implement body.
