A reversible tote bag adapted for the storage, display, accessing and carrying of workmens' tools, which bag in combination with a plurality of workmens' tools disposed respectively in a plurality of compartments in the tote bag comprises:

• a) a container panel comprised of a foldable fabric material and having a generally rectangular body with a generally rectangular bottom panel of smaller size in an orthogonal relationship to the body;
• b) said panel having a first side and a second side, a top edge and side edges, and side edges and a bottom edge which define a peripheral edge;
• c) a plurality of individual compartments adapted to contain workmens' tools, the compartments secured to the first side of the body and said compartments are comprised of foldable material secured to the first side, and the compartments;
• d) a plurality of workmens' tools disposed respectively in a plurality of compartments in the tote bag;
• e) transport means connected to the container panel comprising closed loop reversible handles consisting of a fixed handle and a moveable web handle permitting a workman to carry the bag;
• f) closure means to permit a workman to move top edge of the bag between an open and closed position comprised of a plurality of spaced-apart holes along the top edge and a cord interwoven through the holes;
• g) reversible zipper means including a double headed zipper extending about the peripheral edge to permit a workman to connect and disconnect the peripheral edge, so that the bag may move between;
• i) a storage and carrying position wherein the peripheral edge is connected by the zipper means with the first side of the panel facing inwardly;
• and
• ii) a coplanar display and accessing position without the connection of the peripheral edges;
• iii) a storage, accessing and carrying position wherein the peripheral edge is connected by the zipper means with the front side facing outwardly;
• iv) an open and closed mode for the open top by moving a cord between a drawn/closed position and a released/open position;
• v) a tool roll position wherein the wall is moved between the coplanar display and accessing position without the connection of the peripheral edges by rolling from right to left inwardly on the display panel and tying the roll thus formed with the cord;
• and in an alternate embodiment
• vi) a knapsack position wherein in the storage and carrying position straps are extended for use in carrying the tote bag on a worker's back.

A display bag for transporting and displaying fasteners comprising a container panel that is closable to form a nail bag, and operable to allow access thereto comprising:

• a) a container means openable for forming a display apparatus and closable for forming a nail bag, constructed of foldable canvas fabric, comprising:
• i) a container panel of generally rectangular construction having an inner and outer side and a one and other end;
• ii) a semi detached bottom panel, hingedly attached adjacent one end of said container panel extending outwardly orthogonal relationship thereto;
• b) a continuous seam extending around the peripheral edges of the container panel and bottom panel having a first fastener segment and a second fastener segment joined at a common point;
• c) strap means for hanging the nail bag from a user's waist and for drawing the oval opening of the bag closed;
• d) releasable closure means for closing the continuous seam to form a bag and for opening said continuous seam to form a planar display apparatus;
• e) transport means connected to the container panel for carrying the display bag comprising a pair of handles;
• f) display apparatus for organizing and displaying a plurality individual nail compartments fastened to the container panel in coplanar relation thereto formed of a foldable canvas material, whereby the releasable closure means is operative to move from the open position to the closed position to move from the open position to the closed position along the continuous seam panel, and forms an enclosed generally rectanguloid bag having a generally oval opening.
