ABSTRACT:
A portable, hand-held fire fighting tool that can be connected by a hose to a large source of fire extinguishing agent is described. This tool comprises a hollow, penetrating body having a sharp, removable cutting element connected thereto. This body is then connected to a hollow, linear handle and the angle formed between a longitudinal line drawn through the body and the handle forms an angle of between 45.degree. to 135.degree.. At the end of the handle opposite to that attached to the penetrating body element, a hose connection device is located. When this is connected to a hose, and the hose then connected to a large source of fire extinguishing agent (e.g. a fire truck or fire hydrant, for example) the fire extinguishing agent can flow through the handle and penetrating body and out over the sharp, removable cutting element attached thereto. This tool is particularly useful in fighting fires contained within confined spaces such as those embodied by mobile homes, motor homes, truck trailers, small buildings and the like.
