A die cut blank of corrugated paperboard for forming a one-piece self-locking container for a product such as computer software items. Five panels forming the top, bottom and sides of the container are in line and flaps depend from either side of one of the side forming panel and each of the top and bottom forming panels. The flaps on the side forming panel include hinged locking flaps and the flaps on the top and bottom forming panels fold inwardly; the side flaps folding around them and being locked in place by the fifth panel engaging the locking flaps. The fold line for the flaps along one side of the blank are formed by serrated score lines rupturable for removal of the one end of the container providing a self supporting file holder for the software packet. A serrated thumb hole score is provided adjacent the fold line at the top (or bottom) of the container as access to enable tearing open and removal of the one end of the container. After first opening, the container is reused as a storage case for the product.
