Yes, at the last place I volunteered we had gotten some. Cross between a NY Hook and a Boston Rake. Worked decently from what I remember.

Late to see this. I carry a Lockwood as my tool of choice. Absolutely love mine, wrecks lathe & plaster and drywall. Below is mine after replacing chisel with forks.

Might be frowned upon on a FDNY buff page, but I prefer this over my NY roof hook for interior and OV work, albeit we don’t have window bars so the roof hook may have it beat. We don’t have the staff for do much topside work so I can’t compare the two on roof work.
