Okay, the little wedge he added at the end to keep progress was cool. So simple.

The original tool was developed by FDNY Deputy Chief Hugh Halligan many years ago. ( He also invented the Halligan Hook. ) He combined some features of the claw tool with those of the Kelly tool (lock breaker). Eventually his patent expired and the tool was then slightly tweaked (mainly on the fork end) and manufactured by someone else. IDK if the tool or the company was named Pro-bar. I believe the company may have been started by an FDNY lieutenant from a midtown Truck Co. who was also a locksmith and previously had invented the K-tool. In any event even YEARS AFTER THAT other companies manufactured a similar tool and *I would imagine* that the name Hooligan was chosen to avoid legal issues and yet somehow confuse folks as to what tool they were purchasing.
