# Hand tool with slip resistant tip

## Abstract

A tool, such as a pry bar including a textured tip is shown. In one embodiment, the textured tip includes a plurality of projections and a plurality of grooves. Various textured tip embodiments are configured to increase friction/gripping with a workpiece, thereby increasing a pry force applied to the workpiece before the pry bar slips and/or loses contact with the workpiece.
