I recently saw a Hardware Aisle post about The Pulverizer™ from Ames True Temper/Jackson Tools. It’s a new fully-forged, heat-treated, multi-purpose concrete and demolition tool. The 12.8″ long Pulverizer™ weighs 3.5 pounds, has a heavy-duty 1-1/2″ faced sledge head, claw teeth, a 2″ scraper with nail puller, a triangular-shaped area below the head for ripping through drywall, and a shock-dampening, textured, TPE grip.
It will be available this spring at leading retailers (Ace Hardware, True Value, Orchard Supply, Amazon…) nationwide. Its “possible” retail price is $39.99, but you can get one online now for $40.24.

I noticed they market a fabulous, innovative, snow shovel also.

Isn’t this a slightly more specific version of the fubar? http://www.amazon.com/Stanley-55-099-FatMax-Functional-Utility/dp/B000FCGS0Y/ref=pd_bxgy_hi_img_b
@tedknaz Looks like it to me. Though lighter and without the FUBAR’s 2×4-gripping jaws.
The Stanley Fubar comes in small, medium and extra large sizes.
We actually like that tool – not so much for demolition but for twisting errant framing into place. Along with a Cepco BoWrench and QuikJack, a Mayhew Tweaker and a Vaughn Bowjack we tackle most deck-framing projects.
But as der5er points out, this Ames tool doen’t have the gripping jaws that we find useful
I’m pretty sure this shows up in Halo as a weapon. 🙂
Without a bottle opener, and a laser-sight, it’s useless to me…
Was in Sears the other day and saw the Stanley FatMax FuBar. I picked it up, and it was a real chore to put it down again. I was Christmas shopping and tried real hard to come up with a reason my wife needed one! Oh well.
The TOH article says this thing is useful for busting up concrete. Has anyone actually tried it for that? I can’t see this tool doing very well busting up concrete.
Especially if the concrete contains coarse aggregate.
While some “carpenters” might abuse their claw hammers by breaking off the odd piece of concrete spatter or squeeze out – I would not call a claw hammer or this tool a concrete demolition tool. If you want a hand tool – buy a sledge hammer or stick to a small rotohammer or Kango breaker for the light work – a pneumatic jackhammer for the heavier work – or a hydraullic breaker on your skid steer or backhoe for the major jobs
