ABSTRACT:
A multi-use lever having a flat pry blade member and a handle lying in substantially parallel planes connected by an elongated midsection. A pair of bends provide a substantially upright configuration transitioning from the handle and pry blade member to the midsection, enabling the worker to drive and extract nails from constricted work areas, and lift heavy objects by increasing leverage exerted by the tool. A claw and eyelet defined as part of the pry blade member allow the lever to be utilized as a nail extractor. V-shaped tips of the claw provide points for digging into soft building materials and provide an edge providing a fulcrum for prying at unusual angles. The lever is made of a solid steel construction, allowing the lever to be used as a hammer, with a flattened portion functioning as the strike point.
