Death Stick EX-9: The Exhumer

Yup, I’m serious. I’ve got one, and you should too. This is a great “cat’s paw” style nail puller. The idea is that you stick the two prongs on each side of the nail and smack the back with a hammer. It digs into the wood and under the nail. Ridges on either side of the prongs dig into the nail, and the lever arm rips the whole thing out with ease.
Pick up an Exhumer. You’ll thank me for it.


(There are probably lots of other cat’s paw nail pullers that are just as good, but none have such a cool name. Or a built-in bottle opener.)
(They have them at Lowes too, if I remember correctly.)
