FatMaxFubar II

Great tool! Looks great, built well and has loads of functionality. I plan on using it for home renovation and demolition. Great price for the tool and the weight feels like it would last a life time.

The best universal hammer tool I've used. Been using these for 16 yrs now

So I had a project planned and thought the hammers and wreaking bars I had would be sufficient, still I bought the FUBAR II as an extravagance.I had to replace the felt and inspect the wood roof underneath on the summer house built in 2009, on the property we bought in 2011.. I have for the last few years been doing repair jobs on the rather flimsy felt but when we started to get mold inside the building and plasterboard roof was starting to warp action need to be taken.So the August bank holiday was spent with me ripping out 120sqm of rotted OSB, glass fibre insulation... without a battery powered skill/circular saw a wreaking bar and the Fubar II I would never have got the materials of the roof.The Fubar II hammer head was used to get the wreaking bar into position under the OSB... then using the jaws prying it up and also for nails that refused to be pulled... smashing then down.This is now one of my favourite manual tools.For three days we sat on a roof and restored it, without it I would still be up there wondering why I was on my own doing this.`The soft grip handle means you don't get any vibration, the weight of the hammer is good and effective and after been use hard for three days it shows signs of wear it is wearing them like badges of honour.I couldn't recommend this tool highly enough is you have a moderated demolition job, in confined or awkward spaces... sitting on a pitched roof while using this tool I never felt it was going to cause me a problem.

Multi use is amazing. Primarily used it so far to strip large pallets and made quick work. I wanted a Multi use tool so it i had more value for money instead of a one use thing and not get the general use out of it. Very sturdy tool, sits nice in your hand not much weight to maintain control and not loosely swung around.

Used by a novice DIY'er for property renovation. This is my second fubar, the first disappeared when I hired trades on a previous job!Excellent for light weight renovation work. Perfect for smashing apart old kitchen units. Works well for removing tiling, without any finesse.It works well as a heavy duty hammer. Has a claw for removing larger nails and studs (but I'd recommend a claw hammer for most nail removal jobs) and it has a nicely tapered wedge handle to use as a light-weight pry bar.Probably a little too industrial for most domestic DIY projects. It does many jobs adequately, hammer, pry bar, nail claw, cold chisel etc, but it can be unwieldy and doesn't replace any of these items where a dedicated tool is required.

Brilliant tool, though I actually wish it was a yard long and not hammer sized. Dismembered my old shed, side gate and a few pallets with ease. The open jaw could use being 1/4" wider but none the less did pretty much everything I asked of it. So much easier to wield than my usual method of a crow bar and hammer

I love using this tool - what more can you want? A tool that bangs (hammer) a tool that lifts (crowbar) and with jaws for 'suitable' grabbing and ripping use. I used it to remove a wall lining. It has enough weight to it to thrust the crowbar end under material (be careful with your aiming!) and when said material has been removed revealing tacks/nails that held the material by rotating the tool it becomes a hammer and BANG the nails are levelled!The gripping end works well across timbers, maybe floorboards, but secretly it is also a clever rounded lever similarto the crowbar end - so 2 crowbars in one :-)

All hammers should be made like this.I wish that more tool and knife designers would make things out of one piece of metal.It cant go wrong and why not have a pry bar at the end of the handle ?Bargain. Beautiful design.Thank you for not covering it in paint, Stanley - which is completely pointless as it gets chipped to bits on day one. (Like another Fubar I bought)
