Stainless steel provides the necessary strength and durability, while the large hook at the end helps create an effective lever for easy loosening of frames and separation of supers. A properly shaped tool speeds up work during inspections and simultaneously reduces the risk of comb breakage, chipping of supers, or other mechanical damage during prying.
