Abstract (en)

The present disclosure provides a tool and tool system that allows the user to change the orientation of a bit held by the tool even without removing the bit from the tool. A tool (1) according to an embodiment includes: a housing (21) having a grip (24); a holder (5) with the ability to hold a bit (3); an oscillating rotary mechanism (6) to generate power that imparts an oscillating rotary motion to the holder (5); and an adjustment mechanism (70). The adjustment mechanism (70) switches the state of the holder (5) between a prohibited state and a permitted state. The prohibited state is a state in which the holder (5) is prohibited from rotating around a virtual axis with respect to the grip (24) unless the holder (5) is supplied with the power. The permitted state is a state in which the holder (5) is permitted to rotate around the axis with respect to the grip (24) even when the holder (5) is not supplied with the power.
