Abstract: A container (10) for holding at least one article (32, 132) includes a sleeve (12, 112), a top (16, 116) located at one end of the sleeve (12, 112), and a base (14, 114, 214) located at an opposite end of the sleeve (12, 112). The container (10) includes a locking mechanism (54, 56, 154, 156, 158, 254, 256, 258) that provides means for releasably securing the sleeve (12, 112) to the base (14, 114, 214). A support structure (28, 128, 228) is positioned on the base (14, 114, 214) and includes a recess (44, 144, 244) for receiving an article (32, 132) and an arm (46, 246) that is proximate to the recess (44, 144, 244) and configured to contact the article (32, 132).
