Abstract: A kit for assembling a tool and the resulting tool which includes a shaft member, a blade member and a locking clip member securing the shaft member to the blade member. The shaft has an orifice extending into its periphery toward a lower end thereof. The blade member has an aperture for receiving the lower end of the shaft member. The blade member has a first orifice extending therethrough and a second orifice which registers with the orifice in the shaft member when the shaft member is inserted fully into the blade member. The locking clip member is non-resiliently deformable and has a first end which may be bent to lodge the clip in the first orifice of the blade member. The locking clip member has a second end, opposite the first end, for insertion through the orifice of the shaft member and the second orifice of the blade member to lock the blade member to the shaft member. A method for assembling the kit is also provided.
