Use it for the trades instead of a regular pry bar

As a professional carpenter for 30+ years I have used tools like these consistently. This combo of tools, especially for the price, is indispensable.The flat bar gets used from everything; prying, shimming, nail removal, scraping, opening paint cans, trim removal, door stop, and even removing screws from those boards that they just don't want to come out of.The double ended cat's paw is great. It's not too small to handle the larger jobs but not big to handle the smaller jobs. In the event you need to be little more "gentle" on finer pieces, the combination of the flat bar and the larger cats paw is the way to go.The two pieces are great quality materials and nicely finished. I highly recommend them to anyone that is dealing with wood.

This has become a staple in my tool bag. Have used 1000's of times now and it seems indestructible. Put it through very heavy duty demo work-- literally used it as a chisel as well many times (even though thats prob not recommended).Ignore any reviews complaining that the edge dulls after use (what do they expect?). Easy to resharpen if you really need.You should definitely buy this.

Good quality tool straight out of the box. Looks like it will be around for a while. As others have mentioned in their reviews, I do find the bevelled end to be a little steep so I sharpened mine so I could get behind trims easier. Looking forward to using the beer bottle opener feature!

For the price jeezzzzz these things are amazing they work great for any applications get 2 though Incase you’re installing windows they work like a charm and last a long time I had to buy more cause my last one was stolen the value is great you get two for a super nice price not to mentions the quality they’re nice and thin and heavy duty they also donate to the vets so it’s even better I recommend these to all my coworkers and friends. I’ve been only buying spec ops since I started they’re cheap and built to last I hope those helps. It would make a perfect gift for a father or a husband I’m sure anyone would appreciate getting one of these bad boys.

As an avid DIYer, I often find myself having to remove baseboards. These work great for this purpose. The edges are sharp enough to get in behind the baseboards and they are stiff enough to easily pull the baseboards away from the wall. Having 2 of these is really helpful for longer lengths of baseboard (I am less prone to break the baseboard during removal). I would not recommend these as an alternative for a crowbar when doing the demo phase of a home project, but they work great for prying off trim. I have also used them to pull nails (usually while I am pulling trim) and they work well for this purpose, too. They do have a built in ruler, which i will probably appreciate at some point, but it has not been useful for me, so far. The quality of construction is excellent. I would recommend these for anyone that ever has a need to remove trim.

I am going to admit right up front I have yet to use this bar on the job.I am a semi-retired flooring installer and a woodworker of some thirty + years of experience. Semi-retired means I am no longer on MY knees for forty hours a week...instead I make sure the guys on the floor have what they need to stay on THEIR knees because we get paid for the product we install...not getting up and chasing down product and tools. With that in mind, I jokingly refer to myself as 'the walking toolbag'. I carry pencils, a speed square, a tape measure, a utility knife...and a prybar at all times. I am used to 'losing' pencils but it chaps my hide to lose a prybar, something that happens frequently. So while scanning the options available here, I had in mind finding something that looked a little bit different than the standard blue or black bar. I sure found it in this product!!! Like I alluded to before, I have a bit of experience. I feel qualified to rate a tool like this before use. Here goes: the bar is of a slightly heaver gauge that the common hardware store brands...not much, but enough to be noticable. That's fine in my case as the bar will be used more to pry the last row of flooring in place than remove...let's say trim and baseboards. In my hand it feels more like a tool...than a bit of fluff. The edges of the bar have been rounded enough that there are no sharp burrs left from the manufacturers processes. The ends are ground rather than stamped. There is a unique side-pulling feature for trim nails. There is unique edge stamping at one end that should offer a better grip to the bar while pulling trim. There is a unique paint scheme from every other trim bar in existence. There is even a beverage (😉) opener! Last but not least in my mind, Spec Ops donates a small percentage of the sale to Veterans organizations. So, having said my piece, I am happy with my purchase. I got the two-piece offering, which was a buck or so more than a single bar would cost at the orange box store. Heaven help the installer that thinks THIS bar is his....mmuuhhhhaaaa!!!! 🤣🤣🤣UPDATE: After a week on the job, both installers tried several times to 'keep' this bar... blatantly. Both asked "Hey, Woody. Can I keep it?" I just smiled...the kind that freezes ice...and told them where to find one of their own. It held up well to the kind of abuse that folk in the trades give to tools that they don't own. I can't recommend this lil pry bar enough to anyone in the market for a tool like this!
