Freund Replicable Blade Slate Ripper Handle Only

Slate Ripper is used for removing broken slate and pulling nails from composition shingles/wood shakes on reroofing. The ripper has a thin blade with a hooked end which is slipped underneath the broken slate, and hooked around the nails. Pound the handle to pull the old nails out and remove the broken slate. A new slate is held in place by using a slate hook.

• The re-enforced handle will withstand a beating over its lifetime. 
• The tool is equally useful on tile shingles and cedar shake. 
• Blade is easily replaced by means of two special screws
• Including assembly wrench for quick change of the blade
