Any Ex-Military out there? Jul 27, 2010 I love this tool, period. There are very few things this can't do. Perhaps I missed it but is seems no one has caught the joke in the name of this tool. "Functional Utility Bar" or FUBAR for short. FUBAR to anyone who was in the military would know this is as "F**ked Up Beyond All Repair", which this little gem will do to almost anything if used with enough earnest. Don't think for a moment that the kids at Stanley Tools Marketing didn't know this. "What'll we call this thing, they asked? Multi-tool?, King Pry bar?,Thors' Hammer?,c'mon guys THINK! This thing can do it all, hammer, pry & tear, it can can really screw things up. We need a catchy name." From the back of the room came a voice, a salty ol' salior, he said in a low voice, "if it'll make things unrepairable to the point you can't tell what it was..........then call it FUBAR." The head of marketing asked what the heck that was supposed to mean? The ol' salt educated the rest of the marketing staff and the legal dept. had a stroke and had to be carried out. Marketing however, loved it but agreed they couldn't go with that name........unless........what if we said it was an acronym for something different? This is *functional*, *utilitarian*, and it IS a *bar* (this is the short version, the meeting actually went on for 49.4 hours) What does that break down to? FUBAR!! All the folks in the trades and the veterans will get the reference and buy it "just because". Genius! The ol' Salt was promoted to head of the FatMax division, in charge of product names. Yep, I am sure thats' just how it happened.
Oh! BTW, Buy this tool its' GREAT

Mini-Zombie Killer Aug 09, 2009 This is a badass manly tool. Purchased as a present for someone, not sure how they're going to put it to use, but it looks cool. Might be of use for killing zombies.

BABY OF THE BUNCH Apr 23, 2009 i HAVE THE MID SIZED UNIT AND THE SMALL ONE. THE MID SIZED BAR IS HEAVY AND CAN GET ARM TIERING AFTER A FEW HOURS USING IT. BUT THE SMALL FATMAX BAR IS PERFECT FOR GENERAL DESTRUCTION AND HOME USE. I HAVE ALSO USED IT ON JOBS AND IS LIGHTER AND MORE HANDY. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS FATMAX BAR BUT FILE THE HAMMER HEAD A LITTLE FLATTER AND PUT A BETTER CLAW FOR PULLING NAILS.

fubar Feb 08, 2009 Thanks to this tool, I can now rip those old 2 X 4's and drywall right off the wall and floor, without a hammer and all the noise. Just grab and twist, usually using one hand, with none of the "violence" I used before getting this bar.
Amazing Tool Jan 29, 2009 I saw this demonstrated on a DIY show, I checked on it locally but was very happy to get it here at such a great price. Love it and it does everything it says it will. This is a lifetime tool.
