Apparently part axe, part pry bar, part sledge. Can't seem to find them for sale anywhere or get specs on weight / length, but it sounds "pretty heavy"

Anyone have experience w/ one?
 
I use one every shift at work..its a no finesse type tool..just point a truck man in the direction you want to go and point..o yea stay out of his way..its functional but it would be a streatch to use it while camping etc. If you live in a flood plain..get one for your attic..good tool for that for sure. They weigh about 9 lbs. i like em on the fire truck..but on my pack..no thanks too many tools a quarter of the weight that do the job. hope this helps ..later Luke
 
Never used a Denver Tool. Our Ladder guys used them for entry, they were pretty heavy.

Now a Halligan...gads If I had a buck for every single piece of sheetrock/panelling/wallboard/ceiling etc. I'd be pretty well off.
 
Yep, we use Halligan bars in particular for access to cars during accidents. A Halligan and sledge and you can pop the Nader bolts on doors pretty easy. Don't have any Denver tools in the department that I am aware of.
