Dead OnTools AN14 Annihilator Wrecking Bar Silver metallic, 14-Inch

When I first opened the box from Amazon, the package I received looked way more like a spice rack than a pry bar. Because it WAS a spice rack, mis-labeled. I really have to wonder how that mistake got made in the warehouse. :D A couple of short days later, complete with cross-shipping, I had the appropriate item in my hands and Amazon had one spice rack on the way back.I bought this item to replace a similarly sized, similarly weighted, but significantly less useful basic pry bar in my NET toolkit. NET is what my city calls its CitizenCorps CERT program, and it's one of the best-utilized CERT programs I've ever encountered. The primary way these things get used by us in the event of an earthquake is to pry doors open or break glass or other things that are generally needed to get people out of damaged buildings. Stuff that will get you arrested if you do it any other time than after an earthquake. ;) Also, a pry bar of this size can be used to move heavy debris just enough to wedge in a pole or other, larger lever as the first step in the slow process of extracting someone pinned under something big and generally uncomfortable.How does it work? Well, thankfully I haven't had any actual earthquakes in which to test it under real world conditions yet, and I don't fancy being arrested, so I'll have to settle for more mundane tasks like dismantling a shed and pulling the nails so the wood can be reclaimed. For those tasks, the product performs excellently and makes short work of the job.

No complaints. Literally use it for everything; breaking up frozen ice, 3-4” concrete (with a sledge), floor tile/ceramic, almost any rock turns to dust using it handheld (wear eye protection), cuts drywall, not sure what it doesn’t do…wait…THE doesn’ts; it doesn’t weigh much, it doesn’t hurt your hand or vibrate when striking, it doesn’t take much force, and it doesn’t cost much.My only semi criticism…is it is hard to find surfaces that you can use to break things on without breaking the surface itself.Get one for the car, kitchen, garage, tool box, nightstand, grandkids…just get one. 🤘💪

Great demo hammer. Built like a tank and glad it is, because it arrived from Amazon in a thin envelope and was all banged up. Scratches everywhere but that’s it. Thought about having it replaced, but its sole purpose is to break things so I’m not worried about minor damage. But Amazon, please ship this in a proper box.

No images, but this tool definitely worth what you pay for the price. I got this for my boyfriend as a birthday gift, and he absolutely loves it! He already uses it a lot and he really liked how many different tools there were included in one big tool. He also said it was comfortable in his grip

I have both sizes now and I use both of them on a daily. Comfortable grip and well designed for all the things needed.

The Annihilator is a well thought out multi purpose tool to be used for prying, hammering, chipping as well as light demolition work. It even has a special "dry wall (or sheetrock) axe" to help you cut through between studs quickly.The casting is precise and it seems to be made of a good steel alloy. The Annihilator is only limited by your imagination.I only wish it were made in the USA (it's made in China), even if it cost a few bucks more.

exactly as described

I picked this up for regular demo work I pick up occasionally, but primarily to carry with my tools on our fire department, and it works out great! In addition to all the features of the 18 inch model, you can use the bottle opener as a spanner wrench and the board straightener as a hydrant wrench. The spike quickly takes down dry wall and the pry end is perfect for ripping up roofing tiles. Compare this tool to a Stanley Fubar for up to six times as much.
