• a pair of semi-cylindrical portions, said portions being hinged together along a pair of adjacent edges, the convex surfaces of said portions being relatively smooth;
• and latch means formed on the concave surfaces of said portions adjacent the opposite edges of said portions, said latch means including at least one male member terminating in a pawl and at least one female member having a detent arranged to receive and non-releasably engage said pawl whereby said latch means cooperate to substantially permanently secure said semi-cylindrical portions together when said portions are closed about said handle means.
