ABSTRACT:
A double-headed tent stake driver and puller is provided for inserting and removing tent stakes, nails and the like. The double-headed tent stake driver and puller includes a slide hammer and a coupler mounted on the distal end of the slide hammer shaft. The coupler has an elongate body with an open end and a hollow core sized to receive the head of the stake or nail intended for use with the present invention. The coupler includes a retractable keeper slidably received within. The keeper provides the twofold benefits of retaining the stake once inserted into the coupler, and presenting a surface for imparting the extraction force upon a stake to be pulled from the ground. The keeper is urged to its closed position by a spring.
