The Shove Knife is a compact forcible entry tool designed to provide a fast, efficient, and low-damage method for opening residential, office, and interior doors equipped with spring latch locks. Widely used by firefighters, maintenance personnel, and building professionals, the Shove Knife allows operators to manipulate latch mechanisms without causing unnecessary damage to doors or hardware.
Its versatile design allows the tool to be used from either side of a door. For inward-opening doors, the knife can be inserted behind the molding stop to retract the latch. For doors that open toward the user, the knife can be worked above or below the latch point and manipulated to release the latch mechanism. Compact and easy to carry, the Shove Knife includes a protective cover for safe storage when not in use.
