An electric tool may include a tubular housing, a motor disposed within the housing, and a tool holder rotatably driven by the motor and capable of holding an end tool. A shoe may be supported by the housing and may determine a protruding length of the end tool from one end of the housing. A battery mount portion may be disposed at the other end of the housing. The battery may be mounted to the battery mount portion as the battery is slid relative to the battery mount portion along a direction intersecting the extending direction of the housing.
