Claim:
A multi-use demolition tool, comprising: a handle having a longitudinal axis; a head integrally formed with an upper portion of the handle, the head including a strike face, the head including side surfaces on opposite sides of the strike face; a bent pry bar located at a bottom end of the handle; and fixed board grasping jaws located on the head including a fixed upper jaw having a first set of teeth and a fixed lower jaw having a second set of teeth, the first set of teeth facing and being generally parallel to the second set of teeth, the parallel first and second set of teeth being generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis; wherein the fixed upper jaw and the fixed lower jaw form an opening facing a first direction generally-perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the handle, wherein the strike face faces a second direction opposite the first direction, wherein the upper jaw has a rearward portion having a height that tapers so as to become narrower as it extends toward the first direction, wherein an upper surface portion of the head has an arcuate configuration, wherein the bent pry bar has a teardrop shaped opening constructed and arranged to pry a nail from a planar work surface, the bent pry bar being bent in a direction that is generally perpendicular to a longitudinal central plane of the head, the head and pry bar arranged so that one of the side surfaces of the head will contact the planar work surface at the end of prying the nail from the work surface when the prying is continued to a maximum extent, and wherein the fixed lower jaw has a thickness smaller than a thickness of the fixed upper jaw.
