Abstract: A tool is provided for use in combination with a conventional claw hammer. The tool comprises an integral tool body having a sleeve for surrounding the cylindrical striker section of the hammer head. A support portion extends outwardly from the sleeve generally at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the sleeve and carries at its remote end a surface engaging curved portion for resting against the surface from which a nail is to be pulled and for acting as a fulcrum holding the hammer away from the surface to improve the direction of pull on a nail grasped by the claw of the claw hammer. The surface engaging portion at the end of the tool has an apex at one end including a sharpened claw for engaging a fully embedded nail. At the opposed end is provided an anvil surface which can be struck by the hammer to drive the apex into position to grasp a nail.
