A blow molded carrying case having a base and a cover for the base is provided with an improved hinge construction in which a pair of oppositely directed hinge pins formed on the cover are received in a pair of spaced hinge pin receiving bosses formed in the base. These bosses receive and partly surround the pins, while a locking strap associated with each of the bosses is secured to the base and has an intermediate portion overlying the pins to trap the same in the recesses of the base.
