A tool storage device may include a handle assembly including a support arm connected between a body and a handle portion and having a substantially rectangular cross section oriented with first walls extending transverse to the axis having a greater width than second walls extending parallel to the axis. A width of the handle portion may be at least about 50% of a width of the body. The body may include a frame assembly formed of a rigid material, a wall formed of a flexible material and at least partially defining the storage compartment with an open top, and a cover formed of a rigid material connected to the frame assembly to selectively close the open top. A wheel well portion receives each wheel and may cover the width of the wheel and a portion of the circumference of the wheel. A radial clearance between the wheel and a lower end of the wheel well may be no more than about 0.5 inches.

Abstract: A tool storage device and a tool box. The device may include flexible walls cooperating to define a storage area, and a rigid frame supported in the storage area and including a central portion extending in a direction from a bottom wall toward a top wall, one base portion extending from one side of the central portion, along the bottom wall and toward one side wall, and another base portion extending from an opposite side of the central portion, along the bottom wall and toward an opposite side wall. The tool box may include a body defining a storage compartment; a lid defining a groove in its outer surface to support an elongated work piece; and a handle engageable with a work piece supported in the groove. The lid may be attachable to the top of the body in a closed position and to the bottom in a stowed position.

Abstract: A cutter including a cutting head and an adjustable handle pivotally coupled to the cutting head. The adjustable handle includes a first adjustment assembly to change a length the adjustable handle extends from the cutting head. The adjustable handle also includes a second adjustment assembly to change the position of the adjustable handle with respect to the cutting head.

Abstract: A storage device system includes a storage case having a base and a cover coupled to the base, and a plurality of insertable bins removably positioned within an interior of the base. The plurality of insertable bins includes a first bin having a first height and a set of second bins each having a second height. The set of second bins is configured to be stackable and have a stacked height when stacked. A depth of the interior of the base, the first height, and the stacked height are equal.

Abstract: A hand cutting tool including a first cutting blade, a second cutting blade, a first handle, and a second handle. The hand cutting tool further includes a handle lock assembly configured to retain the cutting tool in a closed position. The hand cutting tool further includes a visual indicator disposed on at least one of the first handle and the second handle to identify the type of cutting tool and a tactile indicator disposed on at least one of the first handle and the second handle to identify the type of cutting tool.

Abstract: A folding knife including a handle, a blade having a cutting edge, and the blade is pivotably coupled to the handle about a pivot axis between a retracted position and an extended position. The blade is received within the handle in the retracted position and the cutting edge is exposed in the extended position. The folding knife further includes a liner between the handle and the blade. The liner has a resilient member that biases the blade toward the retracted position when the blade is in the retracted position and the resilient member biases the blade toward the extended position when the blade pivots in a direction from the retracted position toward the extended position.

Abstract: A crimping tool, for attaching at least one wire to a connector, includes a housing, a first handle coupled to the housing, and a second handle coupled to the housing and movable relative to the first handle. The crimping tool also includes a working head coupled to the housing opposite the first and second handles. The working head includes an upper wall, an end wall, and a gap defined between the upper wall and the end wall. The crimping tool also includes a punch assembly slidable along the working head toward the end wall in response to movement of the second handle toward the first handle. The punch assembly is visible through the gap as the punch assembly slides toward the end wall.

Abstract: A utility knife including a handle, a blade, a first blade holder, and a spare blade holder. The spare blade holder is pivotal with respect to the handle between an open position where the recess is exposed to allow a spare blade to be removed from the spare blade holder and a closed position where the recess is within a slot of the handle to inhibit removal of the spare blade from the spare blade holder. The spare blade holder further including a cam surface and the cam surface of the spare blade holder engages a cam surface of the handle when the spare blade holder is in the closed position to urge the spare blade holder in a direction from a first longitudinal side of the handle toward a second longitudinal side of the handle to allow the first blade holder to pivot between extended and folded positions.
