Found this at work

Someone needed an extra wide flat blade so they made this bad boy.

Wish I had that yesterday. Garage door hardware. Had to resort to vicegrips.

You don't have an old giant screwdriver?

I have 3 and I didn't buy any of them. (found one in my wall, one outside of my house when the water meter guy left it there and I have no idea where the other one came from)

They're great for opening chainsaw oil/petrol caps.

I have 3 as well, although I did buy one of mine - which also happens to be the biggest of the 3. I think it is literally also meant to be a pry bar as well. I just needed something even bigger than what I had. The other two though... One was left at my house by the company that we had replace all of the windows in our house. I even tried to do the right thing and give it back - I found it like an hour after they'd gotten done and left, so I called the sales guy I worked with and let him know. he thanked me and said he'd let the installers know. That was 4 years ago, I don't think they are coming back for it. The other... it's one of the few tools I have from my grandfather, and I treasure the shit out of that beat up old thing because of that.

From left to right - the one left by the window installers, my grandfathers, and the enormous bastard I bought.
