Excellent Tool for Tree Stump Removal!

Would Recommend

This is a heavy duty, double ended, demolition bar, with the emphasis on heavy. I used it to pry out pieces of roots from a very large pecan tree that I cut down last year and it proved very helpful in both removing hard packed dirt surrounding the large roots as well as prying them up once they were partially cut.

Heavy duty bar. Sturdy implement of destruction.

Would Recommend

Heavy bar! Better than I expected. I had a concrete light post that needed to be moved but first I needed to bust-up the 48" of sono-tubed concrete that anchored the lamp post. I broke-up most of the concrete by simply wailing away with a sledge hammer at steel post which cracked most of the concrete.The digging bar's role was to break the remaining concrete at the bottom that I couldn't break up with the sledgehammer. Pointed end of bar into the chunk of concrete that needed to be broken. Sledg...

Worth every penny

Would Recommend

This might be the heaviest tool over ever bought and used but does exactly what it's suppose to do.

Great tool

Would Recommend

This thing is heavy, did a great job of helping me ferret out softball size rocks while trenching for a pool wire electrical run. Was very helpful with tree roots as well. The flat edge was sharp enough to get through roots several inches thick.

Makes digging in rock MUCH easier!

Would Recommend

This made my life a whole lot easier! There is a layer of limestone where I live that makes digging any size hole quite difficult. Both the chipping and prying ends helped cut through the limestone much faster.

Useful for stumps

bought this after seeing a few YouTube videos recommend it on removing stumps, and sure enough this tool was useful. I was using a pick axe to chop up the roots, and it did help, but this tool was sharper and allowed me to get roots at akward angles I otherwise wouldn't have, and it was easy to spike throw the bottom of the stump to wiggle it around and get it freed.

Great digging bar / long prybar

Would Recommend

Nice, sturdy, long, hardly any flex which is what you want when using it to pry out rocks. I needed to dig out and move large rocks and boulders in order to create a patch to plant berry bushes. Living smack in the middle of hilly coal country I have a little layer of topsoil over a lot of rocky soil. This San Angelo bar made the impossible possible. Slow work, hard work, but possible. Only possible downpoint is that the coating wont hold up long. Not that I expected it to, considering the abuse...

Great product!

Would Recommend

This is a great product. Exactly as described. With your choice of the pointed and flat ends it worked even on the thick ice on my driveway and deck.
