ABSTRACT:
A device is provided which can be used to remove washers from bolts in an efficient, fast and safe manner. The device is comprised of a removable blade assembly disposed in a handle device. The blade assembly has an opening permitting the insertion of the bolt such that when the bolt is fully inserted into the blade assembly, the washer is in contact with a plurality of substantially radially disposed blades. The device itself is provided with a handle, in one embodiment knurled, so that it may be held in a persons hand. After the bolt is inserted into the device, the bolt head is tapped using a striking device, such as a hammer. The force of the impact causes the blades to be driven into the washer, splitting the washer into several arc-shaped pieces and separating them from the bolt. The resulting pieces fall away from the bolt when the bolt is removed from the device, or at least then may be very easily removed from the bolt.
