since there is no method for making a tool de-equip, we just need to assign the tool's parent. Usually when a player manually de-equips a tool, it will go to the workspace!

local p= game.Players.LocalPlayer
local tool= script.Parent
function equipped()
    wait()
    tool.Parent = game.Workspace --Removes the tool from the player and places it in the workspace
end
tool.Equipped:connect(equipped)

@xShadowNight. It automatically does. It's position is the same no matter what parent it is assigned. I tested it so it should work! minikitkat 687 — 9y

Okay, let's go through a check list, Make sure that your tool contains a part labeled 'Handle'. If there are more than one parts, make sure they're welded. And please make sure that the script is a 'Local Script' and not a normal script. Hope this helps! minikitkat 687 — 9y

Okay, I tested it several times in different scenarios. It does work. Can you screenshot your explorer so I can help you further. My guess is that you don't have a part named Handle in the tool. But I could be wrong. minikitkat 687 — 9y
