Question What's the name of the Grip-measure equipment....?

Hey all,
Just a quick question, what's the name of the measurement tool that I call the grip-o-meter? You know that awful heavy and metal contraption that you squeeze and the doctor looks at the gauge to determine how much pressure you can make when gripping While I've got ya- anyone know about the little pinch-o-meter??
I am trying to be more articulate so I can write a better blog about my functional capacity eval last week. Thanks!

Pinch Gauge for finger strength.

Hand Dynamometer for hand strength.



Hope that helps.
