Low Price Stanley 55-099 FatMax Xtreme Fubar Functional Utility Bar


At the end of the day, the FatMax is a tool of destruction. Without trying to be politically insensitive, it's a manly and primitive device. When I pick it up, I have to suppress a Neanderthal-esque grunt. I feel sorry for whatever I plan to use it on. I may even pause for a few moments of silence before commencing to tear it apart. Seriously. The FatMax is that good at destroying things.

The heft is amazingly well-balanced and optimized for smashing things. The hammer and claw is great for ripping things apart especially drywall, wood, and even sheet metal shelving. The pry bar is great for jamming into tighter squeezes. During our last renovation, my first job with this was to make more things fit into our dumpster by making big things into little things. I cannot express how well suited FatMax is for such tasks. In fact, I have to admit I had a little too much fun - a dangerous part of wanton destruction is the impact vibration damage to your limbs. FatMax does a good job of minimizing it for anything soft but try not to get carried away with metal and rock. A few more words of caution: wear protective gloves (especially around the fingers and knuckles if you plan to get carried away) and eye protection (things will be splattering).

On a bit of a side note, I notice that others have commented the usefulness of FatMax for zombies. As much as I love this item, I have to disagree. The FatMax is good for a strong first swing but then horrible for defending against nasty zombie bites. Or for a quick followup blow. Or a quick blow to another zombie since they do tend to congregate. It would however be incredibly useful at jamming a moving wall of spikes should you fall into such a pit trap.Get more detail about Stanley 55-099 FatMax Xtreme Fubar Functional Utility Bar.
