Hello, I'm looking to add some pry bars to my tool set. What do you all recommend? I was thinking a set of indexable pry bars because they look very useful. Thank you.

Thanks for the input. I see Sears has a 3 pc set for $99. Not sure if I can get the 10% off deal on that or not. Most others seem to be GearWrench or KD Tools. Something I saw indicated Sears might have the patent on that style from 1960 but that would be long expired now.

I've got an expandable Gearwrench pry bar and love it. I haven't had a lot of force on it but it gets used alot

Thanks for the help everyone. I ordered the Craftsman 33" locking pry bar: http://www.sears.com/shc/s/ProductDisplay?partNumber=00987652000P&storeId=10153&catalogId=12605

There was 10% off today plus it gave me two $5 off discounts for some reason so it was 62.99. I wanted a nice long one for those tough prying jobs.

I'll take a look at the HF one next time I'm there. I didn't see multiple sizes though on HF's site, only the 15"?

The GearWrench adjustable length was interesting, that seems like it would be useful. Plus it's fairly long. Hm...that one is 10% off tonight too....oh no get me away from all these web sites they're calling to me!!!!
