A pry shovel tool for wooden pallet deck board removal and similar purposes is disclosed in several embodiments. All embodiments include a general S-shaped (in cross-section), relatively thin blade made of thin spring metal, whose forward section defines a central cut-out portion sized to allow the blade to receive therein the cross member of the pallet or like and, for the sections of the blade adjoining the cut-out to penetrate below the board to be removed. In one employment, a permanent elongated handle is affixed to the rear portion of the blade. In a second embodiment, a wider blade and cut-out are provided to accommodate wider pallet cross members such as a 4 x 4 timber. A third embodiment has a blade equipped with means for manually attaching removable handles with a short-length handle, an elongated straight handle, and a handle with a 90 degree removable extension section being disclosed.
