I actually thought this was a police tool for breaking in doors.
So according to comments it’s a post driver. So far I dug holes and put my poles in. This tool seems practical for soft soil, but what do you do when living somewhere with rocky soil or with dry clay soil?
I’ve used one to put those skinny metal posts in that have wings on the bottom part to make it hard to rip them back out. A post hole digger is usually used for large wooden posts.

We have dry clay soil. You put on hearing protection and whack the shit out of the t-post with this bad boy.
Ah thanks! So you use thin metal posts. I still use self cut wood like a caveman and whack the shit out of other things.
Yeah, i wouldn’t use one of these to drive in the wooden posts. We still need them every once in a while for stability.
For hard soil you use a different tool. It’s similar to how you have saws for wood and saws for metal.
When you fill the tube with cement it gets the nickname “Redneck Lockpick”.
