Empty hands?

[ZanyScum]

Is there a shortcut for "empty hands" or something like that? I did not find it in Settings, but perhaps it is worded in a way I don't recognize?

Or do I need to keep one tool slot free to be able to use my hands for actions?

Yes, you need to have a free toolbar slot for that. There is no way to have empty hands while the toolbar has an item selected.

Thank you

You need a free toolbar slot, though if you are holding something that can go in your offhand, you can press X to quickly put it in your other hand and leave your main hand empty.
