A tool holder assembly having a pair of mating handle parts which hold a tool therebetween and which form a compartment therebetween, in which the improvement is a releasable handle fastener assembly. This assembly comprises: a pair of aligned mounting holes located in each of the mating handle parts spaced across the compartment; an elongate shaft assembly is mounted to one of the mating handle parts which includes a shaft which slideably extends through the mounting hole in one of the handle parts and has a spring retainer cap on one end of the shaft on an outer side of that handle part, and a groove in the shaft a preselected distance from the spring retainer cap; a bias spring is interposed between the cap and the outer side of that handle part for resiliently biasing the shaft in away from the outer side of that handle part; a C-clamp mounted to the groove which blocks the shaft moving out of the mounting hole and compressing the spring a preselected distance; and a cross member at an end of the shaft opposite the spring retaining cap; and a cross member slot extending transversely of the mounting hole in the other handle part to receive cross member and permit it to be locked, further shaft extends between the retainer and the other handle part.
