When you are working at a router table, the bit spins at thousands of revolutions per minute and does not care whether it is cutting timber or skin. Keeping your fingers safely away from the cutting edge is the single most important rule of woodworking, yet many hobbyists and even experienced tradespeople still guide small or narrow workpieces by hand — chasing that last bit of control at the expense of safety. Push blocks and push handles exist to solve exactly this problem. They give you a firm, comfortable grip on your workpiece while keeping your hands well clear of the danger zone, giving you the confidence to feed material steadily through the cutter without any part of your body getting close. Whether you are routing edge profiles on narrow stock, running small pieces past a spinning bit, or simply want better control and a smoother finish, a good set of push handles is one of the smartest and most affordable investments you can make in your workshop safety setup.

Push blocks and push handles come in many shapes and sizes, but the core idea is always the same: a non-slip grip surface that lets you press down and push forward on a workpiece without your hands ever getting near the blade or bit. When shopping for a set, you will want to look at the grip material — rubberised or textured surfaces work best — the overall size and shape of the handles, and how many you get in a pack. Having multiple handles means you can use two hands on larger pieces, keep spares within reach, or position handles at different angles for tricky setups. For router table work especially, where pieces are often small and awkward to hold, push handles are not just a convenience — they are essential safety equipment.

In this review we look at a five-piece push handle set designed for use with routers, router tables, and general carpentry tasks. We cover the build quality, grip performance, size and ergonomics, and whether this budget-friendly set delivers the control and safety you need at the workbench.

This set includes five push handles, each measuring approximately 3.2 cm wide by 28 cm long — a size that provides plenty of gripping surface without being so large that it becomes clumsy on smaller workpieces. The handles are made from a durable plastic material with a bright orange finish that makes them easy to spot on a cluttered workbench. The underside features a textured, non-slip surface designed to grip timber, plywood, MDF, and board materials securely, so the handle stays put when you apply downward and forward pressure during a cut.

The design is straightforward but practical. Each handle has an ergonomic top grip shaped to fit comfortably in the palm of your hand, with raised contours that give your fingers something to wrap around even when wearing workshop gloves. The leading edge of the handle has a small lip or heel that can hook against the back edge of a workpiece, letting you push without the handle sliding off — especially useful when you are feeding stock through a router table where constant, steady pressure matters. The handles are light enough to manoeuvre easily but have enough body to feel substantial in use.

In everyday workshop use, having five handles in the set is a genuine practical advantage. You can keep two on the bench for two-handed feeding of wider boards, position additional handles along the length of a longer workpiece for extra control as it passes over the cutter, or simply have spares within arm's reach so you never have to stop and hunt for a push stick. The bright orange colour is not just for looks — it stands out against sawdust, offcuts, and darker bench surfaces, reducing the chance of accidentally pushing a handle itself into the blade because you lost track of it mid-operation.

While these handles are marketed primarily for router table work, they are versatile enough to use with other workshop machines. They work well on a table saw for guiding narrow rips, on a bandsaw for controlled curved cuts, and even on a spindle sander or disc sander where you want to hold small pieces firmly against the abrasive surface without your fingers getting close. The handles can also be used as clamping aids or assembly jigs when you need an extra pair of non-slip hands to hold parts in alignment.

At approximately 3.2 cm wide and 28 cm long each, the handles strike a reasonable balance between reach and control. They are long enough to keep your hand well clear of a router bit or saw blade while still giving you the leverage needed for controlled feeding. The plastic construction is light and easy to clean — a quick brush or blast of compressed air clears away sawdust from the grip surface. As a relatively new listing with no customer reviews yet, there is no social proof to lean on, but the design follows established patterns that have worked well for woodworkers for decades. At this price point, the set represents an accessible entry into proper workshop safety practice.

This five-piece push handle set is best suited to hobbyist woodworkers and DIY enthusiasts who want an affordable, no-fuss way to keep their hands safely away from router bits and saw blades while maintaining good workpiece control.
