The package encloses the tool and has at least one transparent section to reveal at least a portion of the tool, and a pair of access openings spaced about 180.degree. to allow manual digital access to the tool. Means are provided to restrain the stationary member of the tool upon rotation of the moveable member to thereby permit a perspective customer to manipulate the tool as well as view it visually.
