A package for a set of twist drill bits or like tools consists of a one-piece, integrally thermoformed case, having a pedestal portion on its base component in which a series of tool-receiving recesses is defined. The closure component of the case has a cavity in which the pedestal portion is seated in the closed position, and in which may also be received a card insert for advertising and identification of the contained parts. The insert has at least one opening through which portions of the parts are visible, the material of fabrication of the case being transparent. Means is generally provided to increase the security of interengagement between the base and closure components.
