ABSTRACT:
A tool holder for removably holding a plurality of tools such as hexagonal key wrenches in which the holder has a passage for each tool and in which each passage has, spaced from the end in which the tool is inserted, an inwardly extending projection which allows the tool to pass when a flat side of the tool is parallel to the flat face of the projection but which grips the tool when it is turned to bring a corner edge of the tool into engagement with the flat face to clamp it. With large tools, there are two opposed inwardly extending projections, one of which has a groove into which a corner edge of said tool enters to yieldably retain the tool against rotation from its gripped position. With small tools, the tool holder has a shoulder against which the tool bears to limit the movement of the tool away from its gripped position. Instead of all of the passages being in a row, there are two overlying rows of passages so that the holder is narrower and thicker with the result that it can be conveniently grasped as a handle for one of the tools when that tool is partially withdrawn from the holder.
