Abstract: A case for rod-shaped objects has at least one receptacle, a closure part, and a first hinge, wherein the first hinge articulates the receptacle and the closure part relative to one another. The closure part can be folded relative to the receptacle about the first hinge into an open position in which the rod-shaped objects are accessible and forms a positioning support for the case to hold the case in an erect position when the case is placed onto a supporting surface. The closure part has a bottom closure part, a top closure part, and a second hinge, wherein the second hinge articulates the bottom closure part and the top closure part relative to one another so that the top closure part and the bottom closure part are foldable and pivotable relative to one another.
