the slide ring allows
a movement of the operating part body in the forward and backward movement direction on a side fitted to the protrusion, and
a rotation movement of the operating part body via the friction member on an opposite side to the side fitted to the protrusion.
5 . The endoscope treatment tool according to claim 4 ,
wherein the friction mechanism has a first friction part at a part having the slide ring and a second friction part that generates frictional forces in the rotation direction and the forward and backward movement direction at a part different from the first friction part.
6 . The endoscope treatment tool according to claim 5 ,
wherein the second friction part generates the frictional forces smaller than a frictional force of the first friction part.
7 . The endoscope treatment tool according to claim 1 ,
wherein an outer surface of the operating part body has at least one of a concave part or a convex part with which a finger is capable of being engaged in a case of operating the operating part body in the forward and backward movement direction.
