Large grip tools, such as a large grip knife, can make it easier to take care of everyday tasks if you have osteoarthritis in your hands. Some tools will need to be purchased at a specialty store. Others you can adjust yourself. For instance, wrap the handle of your toothbrush in foam tubing to make it larger and easier to grip.
