To provide a steering wheel and an airbag apparatus including a module cover, a portion thereof is operable to prevent an interior of the airbag apparatus from being viewed through a gap between the module cover and a spoke of the steering wheel. A projecting strip extending from an occupant side of a lower spoke of a steering wheel is configured to face the gap between the occupant side of the spoke and a lower rim of the module cover extending from the rear of the module cover.
