ABSTRACT:
A hand tool includes a head and a pin with toothed outer periphery securely extends through two plates extending from the head. A handle has an insertion which includes an elongate slot and a plurality of teeth are defined in a first inner end of the elongate slot. The insertion is pivotably connected between the two plates of the head by the pin. A pushing member is located in the elongate slot and pushes the pin toward the first inner end of the elongate slot so that the toothed outer periphery of the pin is engaged with the teeth in the first inner end of the elongate slot to position the head. When pulling the head toward the handle, the toothed outer periphery of the pin is disengaged from the teeth in the first inner end of the elongate slot, and the head can be pivoted relative to the handle.
