An adjustable tool handle for holding a tool during use provides an improved handling of tools during use of tools that are difficult to use on their own, specifically L-shaped hexagonal wrenches. The adjustable tool handle includes a tool handle body with a handle and an adjustable opening for receiving a tool. In order to place a tool within the tool handle, a user opens the tool handle. When the tool handle is open, one leg of the tool handle is inserted into one of a plurality of openings on the back of the body and the other leg is placed within the adjustable opening. After the tool is placed within the tool handle, the tool is held in place by a securing mechanism. With the tool coupled to the tool handle, a user is able to tighten and loosen work pieces of different sizes and different types.

A drywall repair and texturing system includes a holder, a putty knife coupled with the holder, and a texture pad coupled with the holder. In some embodiments, the putty knife and/or the texture pad are removably coupled with the holder. The holder has a main body with a first end and a second end, and a texture pad connector disposed between the first and second ends. The putty knife has a handle, a first connector for attaching to the first end of the main body, a second connector for attaching to the second end of the main body, and a first knife end having a first width. The texture pad has a textured surface and connectors for coupling the texture pad with the texture pad connector.

A hand tool assembly generally comprising a handle and a tool head combined by a connector. The handle has a first end and a second end. The connector has a first end and a second end. The first end of the connector is combined with the second end of the handle. The second end of the connector is combined with the head of a tool by inserting the connector into a socket/opening in the tool's head. The second end of the connector is flexible thereby allowing it to conform to the shape of the socket regardless of whether the socket is straight or curved. A rigid tube insert is positioned a short distance into the handle second end and extends a short distance outward from the handle second end. Adhesives, fasteners, internal hooks, or other commonly known methods of securing an object within an outer sheath or covering may be used to help secure the components together.

A tool holder for a modular tool in which a tool element is trapped between two slidably mating parts, which may be slidingly aligned to trap the tool element, and slidingly separated to free the tool. The sliding operation of the slidably mating parts is defined by mutually engaging retaining elements configured to allow relative movement of said slidably mating parts along said longitudinal axis, but prevent relative movement in any other direction. The tool holder may form part of a kit comprising one or more tool holders, one or more tool elements, and one or more handles. The handle may be comprised with key elements engaging a proximal extremity of the slidably mating parts when aligned, to that with the handle in position, the slidably mating parts cannot be separated, and the tool element released.

A kit has a handle with first and second handle portions asymmetrically disposed above a pivot. The pivot may be collinear with the first handle portion and connected by an offset leg to the second handle portion. Various instrument arms connected to instrument heads are preferably provided as a kit with the handle. The arms may be sectionally disposed or integral with instrument heads selected from the group of forks, such as meat forks, pasta forks, etc, grippers, spatulas, etc.
