A first operable portion (24) extends from the second end (20) and an extended handle (12) extends from the first end (18). A fulcrum arm (16) extends from the shank (14) at an angle. When a user applies a downward force to a portion of the fulcrum arm (16), the user can then manipulate the extended handle (12) from a standing, or substantially standing, position so as to cause the shank (14) to pivot about the fulcrum arm (16) and thus apply leverage to the first operable portion (24)./ 7 A A A 10 /7 // // // /2 /7// /7 1/ / // /7 /1 I ,/ "\ ~J/ \~ I/7 ~1 ~ ~c2)
