When the arthritis in my hands was so bad this would have been really useful. Couldn't even button my shirt.

If you still have issues, I highly recommend seeing an Occupational Therapist. The common button hook handle is larger where you can use a gross grasp (whole fist) and is easier on the finger joints

I'm pretty much ok now but I'll keep that in mind.

I'm glad you're doing better :)
