Claim:
A staple remover device, comprising: first and second respective opposed elongated jaws extending from a lower end of the remover toward an upper end of the remover, the jaws pivoted to the remover at the upper end, the remover being in a substantially perpendicular orientation above a work surface, and the first jaw moves toward the second jaw; a handle extends downward from the upper end and is pivotably attached to the first jaw at an upper end of the jaw, the handle being normally operationally fixed by a latch to the first jaw such that the handle is spaced from the first jaw by the latch, and at a pre-determined position of the first jaw to the second jaw the handle suddenly de-links from the first jaw wherein the de-linked handle is movable toward the first jaw; wherein the second jaw extends alongside the first jaw, the handle is pivoted to the second jaw whereby the handle includes a link between the first jaw and the second jaw; and moving the handle in relation to the first jaw causes the second jaw to rise.
