PCT No. PCT/US97/15563 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 25, 1999 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 25, 1999 PCT Filed Sep. 4, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO98/09775 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 12, 1998A device for removing staples from papers, cloth, or other material without tearing or mutilating the material. The device utilizes a heel of palm to finger gripping action to facilitate a more natural action for removing staples. Staples are extracted by way of a jaw which opposes a wedge-shaped piece (16) to an abutting plate piece (21), which straightens the staple while simultaneously pulling it out of the paper in a perpendicular direction. The wedge-shaped piece (16) includes a portion where its width and thickness increase to dimensions wherein the sum of the width plus twice the thickness exceeds the total length of the three sides of the staples being removed, thus facilitating complete extraction.
