Shark Corp 21-2220 8-Inch Prybar and Nail Puller

This is one of my favorite tools. It lives on my side everyday in the shop and in the field. It's geometrically perfect for it's intended purposes. Additionally, my boss will mercilessly ridicule anyone that doesn't use this bar.

These are awesome for removing trim and when you need a small/thin prybar. This is my third one I keep loosing them. A must for any fixit homeowner. Stays Sharp and easy to handy

This is an awesome tool, and a must-own if you are into DIY home projects. My friend is a finish carpenter, and he told me to get one of these for a project I was doing. It is great for pulling trim without damaging it. Great for any kind of prying or nail pulling, where precision and small size are needed. The low profile blade and pry end are great for fitting into tight spots. It can pull nails where other tools can't reach. The sharp corners of the blade end are great for pulling carpet staples. Even found the blade useful for scraping the glue holding down the old carpet padding. Only limitation of this great tool is its size. You will still need a larger prybar for larger items, where you need more leverage. And for larger nails, you will need to switch to something like the classic claw end of a framing hammer once the nail is pulled out some. But for precision and delicacy, the Shark is the tool to have!

This is the best little pry bar. I use this bar every single day multiple times throughout a day. My last one lasted 9 years and it took a beating. Not just for pulling nails but good for raising things up like cabinets or appliances when trying to slip a shim underneath. The thin tail end is perfect for breaking the connection between casing and jams as it's very thin unlike some of the other ones which have a thick tail.

Bought this from a woodworker recommendation. I am glad I purchased. Will be ordering the larger size as well. I like the thin scraper blade it has. Pulling trim is a breeze now.

I had the larger version (10") and lost it. The other one was unavailable so I ordered this one which is listd as 8". It seems to me that it isn't just 2" shorter in overall length but is actually smaller overall. That is, the prybar is narrower and the nail puller is smaller. I can't compare them side by side b/c I lost the bigger one, but this is the feeling I am left with.Still its a solid bar. I like that you can whack the end with your hammer and the fish tail (forged steel) is tough enough to just slice through nails/screws that may be holding the piece.You might also consider a set of these Titan 17005 Stainless Steel Prybar and Scraper Set - 2 Piece I use these prybars all of the time for levering off moldings, trim, t&g flooring, siding etc. They are really strong and sharp too.

Great tool for removing trim

After years of brutal torture one of the claws on the cats paw broke so I got a different bar but I still prefer the Shark even with only one claw. I bought a second one after using the old one for years without a full paw. Now I keep both Sharks in my tool belt to carefully remove trim and other unlimited amount of uses. It's thin enough to not damage anything although naturally I occasionally have to put a shim or block of wood behind it. I couldn't find them anywhere and when I finally found them here on Amazon I bought an extra for my dad too thanks dad! (he gave me my first one). Word of advice to anyone buying one.. grab a small file and smooth out any sharp burs before you use it, and if you don't need the blade part sharp, sand it just a bit so it won't surprise you, it's sharp.
