Abstract
A hand tool includes an elongated substantially rigid body having generally opposite first and second ends. The first end has a first socket of a given width and depth formed longitudinally therein. A first slot extends longitudinally into the first end and across the first socket. The first slot has a width less than the width of the first socket. The second end has a second socket formed therein which also extends longitudinally. The first and second sockets can be of different widths and depths. This hand tool is useful on projects where a variety of fastener sizes and types are encountered.
