What's your favorite tool?

[Rice09]

Interior, exterior, search, entry or whatever. What tool do you like to use the most?

Me, I like my flathead axe. It gets the job done and I can get results using the head if I need to chop or cut without sinking the blade and getting it stuck. It works well on a roof.

TIC..if thats considered a tool lol..

other than that I usually shoot for the 4' pike that we have mounted in cab
most of the time this gets me into just about anything I need to open up, also works well for sounding floors

At least that's what I'm usually using at a fire. That's what I get for living so close to the station...

Ya me too, 6' steel NY hook a close second. I haven't Tried the Fubar, but I know at least 5 guys that swear by it.

For entry and search and recue I do like the Haligan bar, it just gets heavy during search.
