ESTWING Pro Claw Nail Puller - 9" Pry Bar with Forged Steel Construction & No-Slip Cushion Grip - PC210G

I've got several pry bars and nail pullers but ordered this one as I needed to pull MANY nails from the ceiling of our garage after removing duct work and an old furnace. Working love my head and pulling nails from drywall I wanted something I could control that wouldn't destroy the drywall at the same time. This was the ticket. It's obviously not huge and pulling some of the larger nails took a bit of finessing but mission accomplished. It's a nice addition to any carpenter's tool box.

The best tool I’ve used for deep nails and stuck boards. I wish I would have had this at the beginning of my project. I went through about 3 or 4 nail pullers before this one. This one by far has been the best

Perfecto

Not the best for delicate work…..but definitely a sturdy workhorse

As a carpenter, I've ever had to replace one Estwing catspaw due to breakage. Good quality prybar. Cleans up well with a little attention from a grinder.

Sometimes I like to do bc a certain amount of demolition as it relaxes me and just recently I used this tool to help pull up some sub flooring boards with lots of nails. In the past I used a smaller Stanley tool which was great for exposing the nail head but had no leverage as it was only about eight inches long. The length of this Estwing model works really well in terms of leverage. Both ends have quite a shallow head so it is easy to pry up nails. I use a 24 ounce hammer and two hits and the nail head is praised up enough to lever the nail out without needing the claw on the hammer. I wish I had bought it before to save a lot of time and hassle.The grip on the handle does provide a little cushioning but I always use gloves and tend to hold the pry bar further up from the grip so it doesn't help me very much.If I could buy one a couple of inches longer that would be a useful improvement for me to make it easier to lever stubborn nails out but it isn't a deal breaker especially as it is difficult to find any longer ones in this style in any case. Mine has has hundreds of hits but other than a little scratching it is holding up well. I don't think that the striking head is as hard as my Stanley but it is fine without too much mushrooming as yet.I have used it for levering up carpet tack strips and as the long end has a shallow angled head it is fairly easy to use for this purpose but a shovel with a square shape is actually a lot, lot easier to remove tack strips and staples from plywood or pressed board.Eating makes great products and this is a fine example.
