With its unique gripping jaw and lever mechanism, the JackJaw Stake Extractor allows one to pull stakes, posts, and rods straight up out of the ground with less physical effort and not having to bend over or to pre-loosen. The tool is made from heavy-gauge, case-hardened steel and is chrome coated for corrosion resistance. Attaching its 4- by 8-inch base plate to a board provides an even wider base for working in soft-ground conditions. Eight models are available, depending on type of stakes/posts (e.g., wood, 'T' fence, 'U' pickets, grounding rods) and pulling applications (e.g., farming, concrete, construction).
