Anyone actually have one of these and wanna throw in some thoughts?

I have a larger one made by Stanley. I have no idea why I bought it now. Maybe for the Zombie Apocalypse. Otherwise, it just lies there pondering existential questions. Mine is a bit short for leverage to force things open but the chisel appears to taper more. It has good reviews on Ammy.

The item for sale is more compact at 10.5". More portable. Much less heavy. Rather short taper for a pry bar and pry side has a steep taper. Offered at a good discount. But only you can think what you will use it for.

If you do not have one, what you do need is a combo emergency water, gas shut off pry bar. That is something you may need in your lifetime for self or neighbor and be not happy if you cannot locate one quickly.

This is the one I bought for that purpose. It is non-sparking and made in the USA. Most folks should consider having something like this. I suspect @RebelTaz would agree.

I do! I do! :cowboy_hat_face: I have a similar tool hanging right under the key rack by the front door. WHEN you need something like this, you don’t want to have to be going… “now where did I put that damned ting!” :rofl:

It’s an odd assortment of items on one (TACTICAL?) tool.
Putting a gut hook on a pry bar/hatchety thing is different.

There must be a reason for this combination of tools but I can’t think of them right now.
As a bonus though, it looks very TACTICAL and inexpensive.
Every junk drawer needs one of these!!

Of course, we all know that adding “Tactical” to any description makes it worth twice as much. Thanks for the upgrade!

TSA adds “tactical” items daily and literally sells them on eBay. Most things “tactical” would be better done with two purpose made dedicated items.

I doubt @RebelTaz uses tacticool tools in his shop. He wants pry bars that are 24 inches or more for leverage. And pointy stabby things that have > 6 inch blades. Right tool for tasks, no?
