A handling tool is configured for gripping and/or handling medical equipment, preferably a container, more preferably a sterilization container. The handling tool includes a carriage and two prongs that are spaced apart in parallel and extend in a longitudinal direction at a right angle away from the carriage. Each prong has a container-placement/grasping side, on which a number of receiving projections, which are spaced apart longitudinally, are formed or arranged. The projections extend in a vertical direction with respect to the container-placement/grasping side. A system includes the medical handling tool and a medical container.
