ABSTRACT:
A gripping tool has first and second displaceably connected members having respective associated jaws. The jaw of the first member is dimensioned to engage under the peripheral lip of a tin lid such as is found on a tin of paint and for this purpose the jaw is preferably of thin flat strip-like form. The jaw associated with the second member is dimensioned so as to project beyond the end of the first member's jaw and downwardly so as to engage over the peripheral lip of the tin lid and down over an adjacent upstanding flange of the lid. The arrangement is such that when the handles are moved in a gripping action, the jaws clamp over the tin lid to permit the tin lid to be loosened for removal from the tin.
