The plastic holder is formed with a pouch to receive the pack of matches which exposes the striker area on the pack when the holder is open. The holder requires a squeezing-twisting motion in order to lock the holder around the pack of matches and a reverse motion of twisting and squeezing is required in order to open the holder.
