I think the double entendre is crystal clear here. That in and of itself would make me MORE likely to buy something like this.

But I go in for that heady stuff <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

They are $50, you can get one at Lowes, not Home Depot. I'm buying one for the fire company, and we'll see how it works in a burn building. If it survives a month at fire school and on the truck, it will survive anything.

I just today picked one up for my truck at the Home Depot in downtown LA on 6th Street for $39. They were kind of hard to locate, but they were at the bottom of the hammer display sort of in the middle of the section. They were not with the prybars. They had 5 or 6 of them left.

Dang, this thing is big and heavy! Maybe 5 pounds total weight. Definitely not a wife's hammer.

I took a bench grinder to my tool today and carefully ground sharp edges on the prybar teeth and the chisel end opposite the hammer. Those edges come quite dull. I think now I could chop wood with the chisel end and certainly use it as a makeshift adze.
