Disclosed is a striking tool technology that contributes to reducing clutch sizes. The striking tool causes a tool bit to perform a striking operation in the long axis direction and to perform a rotational operation about the long axis, thereby causing the tool bit to carry out a predetermined machining operation. The striking tool comprises a tool body; a motor which is housed in the tool body and drives the tool bit; and a clutch which, on a route where the torque of the motor is transmitted to the tool bit, is disposed in a high rotational speed and low torque region that is a stage prior to where the rotational speed of the motor is reduced, which transmits the torque of the motor to the tool bit in a normal state, and which cuts off the transmission of torque generated about the tool bit long axis in the tool body if the torque exceeds a predetermined torque level.
