Abstract

A multipurpose tool is designed to meet the particular needs of commercial truck drivers. Preferably, it has a unitary, single-piece head which includes a chopping tool, a hammering tool, and a prying-pivoting tool, and a nail and/or staple removal assembly. Preferably, there are no sharp edges that are capable of cutting a person's skin. There are multiple surfaces and edges that may be easily wedged underneath an object to pry, lift, or force the object either in a proximal direction toward the user or in a distal direction away from the user, or upwards off a floor or truck bed. It may perform a multitude of functions, such as removing objects embedded in tires, tightening tire chains, repairing pallets (with a hammer/nail remover), moving pallets, prying open frozen doors, chopping ice (for example, removing ice build-up on vehicle). The head of the tool is slightly tilted to facilitate use as a lever. Other users, such as ranchers or farmers, will find the tool useful for repairing wire fences, stretching wire, pulling staples, and performing other small repairs.
