Abstract: A double-headed tent stake driver and puller having twin release levers for inserting and removing tent stakes, nails and the like is described. The tent stake driver and puller includes a slide hammer and a coupler mounted on the distal end of the slide hammer shaft. The coupler has an elongate body with an open end and a hollow core sized to receive the head of the stake or nail intended for use with the present invention. The coupler includes a pair of retractable keepers slidably received within a corresponding pair of slots. The keepers provide the twofold benefits of retaining the stake once inserted into the coupler, and presenting a surface for imparting the extraction force upon a stake to be pulled from the ground. A pair of spring loaded release levers are provided to enable one-handed retraction of the keepers for receipt of the tent stake. When released, the spring loaded release levers return the keepers to a ciosed position, retaining the stake therein.
