       2 . The container as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein the cover is connected to the body through a hinge. 
   
   
       3 . The container as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein the cover is sliding mounted on the body. 
   
   
       4 . The container as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein the cover can be plugged onto the body. 
   
   
       5 . The container as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein the cover and the body each comprises a locking device. 
   
   
       6 . The container as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein one of the cover and the body comprises a fastener for fastening to clothing of an operator. 
   
   
       7 . The container as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein at least a part of the body is transparent. 
   
   
       8 . The container as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein the body is elongate. 
   
   
       9 . A storage case for holding a plurality of saw blade containers of  claim 1 , the storage case comprising:
 a first shell, and   a second shell,   wherein the first shell and the second shell is engageable with each other, and at least one of the first shell and the second shell comprises a set of receiving slots, each receiving slot being operable for receiving a container.   
   
   
       10 . The storage case as set forth in  claim 9 , further comprising a set of release slots, each release slot being perpendicular to and communicating with one of the receiving slots. 
   
   
       11 . The storage device as set forth in  claim 9 , wherein an elastic member is defined on at least a lateral side of the receiving slot. 
   
   
       12 . A storage case for holding a plurality of saw blade containers, the storage case comprising:
 a first shell hingeably connected to a second shell;   one of either the first or second shell having;   a plurality of receiving slots, each receiving slot having a bottom surface and two lateral opposed sides and an elastic stopper extending from at least one of the lateral sides, the bottom surface of the receiving slot residing in a first horizontal plane with respect to a reference surface; and   a plurality of release slots, each one of the release slots corresponding to one of the receiving slots and having a bottom surface that resides in a different horizontal plane than the horizontal plane of the bottom surface of the corresponding receiving slot.
