Abstract: An improved pick tool for piercing, prying and moving small parts within assemblies of delicate and fragile parts. The pick includes an elongate, tubular lever arm with front and rear ends. A manually-engagable handle is related to the rear end of the arm and is shiftable axially relative thereto. An elongate shaft with a pointed front end and a rear end fixed to the handle is slidably engaged within the arm. A compression spring within the arm and engaging the shaft yieldingly holds the shaft and the handle in a rear unactuated position where the pointed front end portion of the shaft occurs within the forward portion of the arm. The handle and shaft are shiftable forwardly to an actuated position where the pointed front portion of the shaft projects freely forwardly from the arm. A tubular work-engaging bushing of soft, flexible and resilient plastic material projects forwardly from the arm and normally shrouds the pointed end of the shaft.
