A D-shaped grip handle for use with a hand manipulated implement includes a generally U-shaped portion having an integral mounting sleeve for mounting the grip handle on the end of a shaft and having a hand grip bar integrally formed with the U- shaped portion so as to be disposed substantially transverse to the longitudinal axis of the mounting sleeve. The grip bar has a layer of soft rubber material, such as thermoplastic rubber, formed circumferentially thereon so as to create a pattern of spaced raised pads along approximately one-half of the circumference of the soft rubber layer, with the remaining half of said circumference defining a continuous smooth grip surface having an undulating contour to receive the fingers of the user's hand. The raised pads on the soft grip layer provide improved traction with the palm of the user's hand while the smooth opposite surface of the soft grip layer spreads the lifting force evenly onto the palm of the user's hand to thereby increase the comfort during use and reduce the effort required to manipulate an implement with which the grip handle is used.
