C.S. Osborne No. 124 Staple Remover
When to choose it
The No. 124 is the compact option for starting old upholstery staples along a rail you can approach directly. Its 2¼-inch blade gives you a small tool to position under a crown when the seat board is already exposed. The forged, tempered steel blade meets a hardwood handle through a metal ferrule.
If the rail or folded cover keeps the handle too far from the staple, compare the 124-12. That model keeps the same basic role and increases the blade to 8¼ inches. A bent-nose plier can take over when a crown breaks and an exposed leg needs to be gripped.

Questions about this product
Which length makes sense inside a recessed seat frame?
Use the 124 if you can approach the crown directly. Compare the longer 124-12 when the obstruction is between your hand and the staple.
Will this help after the crown has broken off?
If an exposed leg remains, compare a bent-nose staple plier that can close on the metal.
Can I use the six-inch measurement to estimate blade reach?
Use the 2¼-inch blade measurement for reach. Six inches is the total tool length.
