Abstract: A handle to be gripped when applying torque to hand tools employed in connection with fasteners such as screws, nuts and bolts, or for other uses, has a good, advantageous hand "feel" through the provision of a hollow body rigidified by an internal core, with the outer body having sufficient pliability to conform to the shape and size of the palm during each application of squeezing pressure. Special tread means on the tubular body augments its anti-slip characteristics, and the material forming the body well adapts it for the inclusion of an improved and convenient storage for bits.

Abstract: A functional blister package for snipper-type scissors comprising a display card; a transparent, flexible, blistered elongated covering; an outwardly bent edge on the transparent covering facing the display card and made to adhere to said card; the transparent covering being generally shaped to conform to the shape of the snippers; one end of the generally elongated transparent covering being shaped to closely embrace and lock in place the U-shaped handle of the snippers; the other end of the transparent covering being trapezoidal in shape to permit restricted movement of the blades; and a cut-out portion in the transparent blistered covering substantially midway between said ends and allowing the finger or thumb loop of the snipper to project outside so as to permit the snippers to be grasped and tested by the prospective purchaser.

Abstract: A functional blister package for scissors, pliers and other hand tools comprising a display card; a transparent, flexible, blistered elongated covering; an outwardly bent edge on the transparent covering facing the display card and adapted to adhere to said card; the transparent covering being generally shaped to conform to the shape of the hand tool; one end of the generally elongated transparent covering being shaped to closely embrace and lock in place one extremity of the tool; the other end of the transparent covering being splayed to permit of restricted movement of the bladed or sharpened end of the tool; and a cut-out portion in the transparent blistered covering registering with the hand-held part of the tool so as to permit the tool to be grasped and tested by the prospective purchaser.
