5.0 out of 5 stars Stanley Cat's Paw, December 22, 2000

This review is from: Stanley 55-035 11-Inch Nail Puller (Tools & Home Improvement)

I'm a general contractor with lots of hands on roofing and framing experience. I've used several different types of cat's paws in the course of my work including the new "bear claw" type bar. I've found the Stanley to be superior to the others due to two design details. First, the short distance between the notch (where the nail head is held) and the shoulder (where the bar bends) gives considerably more leverage than a "bear claw" type puller, where the distance from notch to shoulder can be an inch or better. Secondly, the sides of the notch taper down at a relatively shallow angle and come to a sharper edge than many other paws. This gives the frustrated carpenter (me) more grace when digging for nail heads. I don't have to dig into the wood very deep in order to grab the nail. This is good, especially in cases where a deep gouge is the last thing I want to leave behind (like in cedar fascia!). There have been times when I've misplaced my Stanley (or dropped it off the roof) and needed to borrow another guy's paw to get myself out of a jam. I've always found myself having to dig deeper or strain harder than I'd have needed to with a Stanley.

I bought this for my son for college. He is going into construction. I wish I had this nice of tools when I was that age.
