How to tell when a player equips a tool?

How can I tell when a player equips a tool? I've tried this, but nothing happens:


local character = game.Workspace:WaitForChild(game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name)
character.DescendantAdded:connect(function(descendant)
    if descendant.ClassName == "Tool" then
        print("Tool")
    end
end)

you can use the Equipped event.

local tool = script.Parent

tool.Equipped:connect(function()
print("Tool Equipped")
end)

If you're checking to see if a certain player has equipped the tool, then you can include a conditional in the equipped script to check the name of the person who equips it.
