Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a holder (or rack) and, more particularly, to a hand tool holder. Description of the Related Art A conventional hand tool set combination was disclosed in the U.S. Pat. No. 8,387,492, and comprises a grip body, two support members, and multiple tool parts. The grip body includes two side covers. Each of the side covers has a storage space. Each of the side covers has an end provided with a pivot portion. Each of the side covers has a face provided with an elongate slot. The support members are received in the side covers. Each of the support members has a pivot shaft pivotally connected with the pivot portion of each of the side covers. Each of the tool parts has a pivot end pivotally connected with the pivot shaft of each of the support members. Each of the tool parts has a distal end formed with a tool end. An extension rod is formed between the pivot end and the tool end and extends through the elongate slot of each of the side covers. In operation, by the quick release structure of the two side covers and the rotational pivoting of the tool parts, the tool end of each of the tool parts extends outward from the elongate slot of each of the side covers to be operated by the user. Alternatively, each of the tool parts is received and stored in the storage space of each of the side covers. However, such a conventional hand tool set combination has the following disadvantages. 1. The pivot end of each of the tool parts is pivotally connected with the pivot shaft of each of the support members, so that the extension rod of each of the tool parts extends through the elongate slot of each of the side covers through 90 degrees or 180 degrees only. Thus, the assembly position of each of the tool parts is limited by each of the support members, and the movement of each of the tool parts is restricted, so that each of the tool parts can only be rotated through a determined angle.2. The grip body is only pivotally connected with the tool parts and cannot be assembled with other tool parts, thereby limiting the versatility of the grip body.3. The pivot end of each of the tool parts is pivotally connected with the pivot shaft of each of the support members, so that each of the tool parts cannot be detached from the grip body, thereby limiting the mobility of each of the tool parts.4. Each of the tool parts is pivotally mounted on the pivot shaft of each of the support members, and each of the tool parts is rotated outward from the elongate slot of each of the side covers to be operated by the user, so that the axis of each of the tool parts is easily rotated and shifted during operation. Thus, each of the tool parts will be able to rotate back automatically, thereby causing inconvenience to the user during operation. BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a hand tool holder comprising a holder body. The holder body includes a first face, a second face, a third face, and a fourth face. The holder body is provided with at least one first groove arranged on the second face and the third face. The at least one first groove has an L-shaped profile. The at least one first groove includes a first recessed portion, a first connecting portion, and a first mounting portion. The first recessed portion, the first connecting portion, and the first mounting portion are connected and construct an L-shaped channel. The holder body is provided with at least one second mounting portion located beside the at least one first groove. The at least one second mounting portion and the first recessed portion extend in the same direction. The at least one second mounting portion is connected to the first connecting portion. The holder body is provided with a fifth face. The at least one second mounting portion has an opening connected to the fifth face. The first recessed portion has an opening connected to the fifth face. According to the primary advantages of the present invention, the holder body is provided with the at least one first groove and the at least one second mounting portion for mounting the at least one first tool part so that the holder body is served as a handle to operate the at least one first tool part. Thus, the holder body is used to store the at least one first tool part and also used to provide multiple operational modes to the at least one first tool part. According to another advantage of the present invention, the at least one first tool part is removably mounted on the at least one first groove or the at least one second mounting portion, so that the at least one first tool part is mounted on different positions of the holder body to provide various operational modes. In addition, the at least one first tool part is removed from the holder body and operated independently. Further benefits and advantages of the present invention will become apparent after a careful reading of the de
