A Nice Package Design Detail in These Alpen Drill Bits
Bit of a balancing act
Here's a small package design detail revealing that the designer thought things through:
These are from Austrian drill bit manufacturer Alpen Drills. Image credit: xelu
The hole in the hang tab has been offset to compensate for the weight of the bits, so it will hang perfectly plumb on a store display.
Of course I still wish they weren't encased in single-use plastic, but I guess you can't have everything.

Yup, not that uncommon.
And what single use plastic were you talking about? I feel differently if you're talking about the case they come in.
Nice, but they are not alone!
Yup! I use Bosch, and they're similar as well. :)
