Abstract
An improved tool holder includes a closed loop comprised of a rod with spaced ends and a bridging element between the spaced ends. The loop typically is closed with the head of the tool retained by the loop and handle fitting through the loop. The handle of the tool may, however, be pivoted to release the bridging section from closing the loop thereby enabling the tool to be removed from the loop. Typically, the holder is mounted on the tool belt and provides a very inexpensive, yet highly reliable manner and construction for maintaining the tool in position ready for use, yet safely retained.
