Abstract

A hand tool (1) includes a handle (20) having a connection end (21) which includes two parallel arms (22) and a driving member (10) having an insertion (12) which is pivotably connected between the two arms by a pin (30) which extends through the two arms and an engaging notch (121) of the insertion. The driving member can be easily replaced by disengaging the pin from the engaging notch of the driving member.
