A tool having a generally horizontal U shaped shaft, the upper portion thereof having a handle attached thereto, and the lower portion of said shaft ending with an upwardly curved blade which tapers to a thin, sharp edge slightly forward of two side tines which are upwardly curved in an arc similar to that of the blade except that said arc turns conversely near the vertices of said side tines so as to form convergences wherein the blade and the side tines, jointly, can engage, grip, and lift a staple from its embedment. An adjustable leverage means is mounted on the lower portion of said shaft so as to provide lift as required to extract staples of various sizes from their embedments.
