I am looking for a hinge that fits in a slit in the lid of a box and the body of the box. I am also looking for the tool that creates the slit for the hinge. I have seen these hinges in cigar boxes. Do you know what these hinges are called, better yet where I can buy some.
Thanks

I think you're talking about a quadrant hinge which also acts as a lid catch to keep it from opening too far.
Search for "quadrant hinge" or "barrel hinge" on
Maybe your looking for barbed hinges? Wood craft supplies them.
sr_wood, thank you, you hit the nail on the head. I have been looking for these for about forever. I really appreciate the information along with the URL.
And my Thanks to all who tried to help.
