burglary tool
Pry bar, maybe
A burglary tool is any implement used or intended to break into buildings, vehicles, or containers—crowbars, lock picks, slim jims, bolt cutters.
The term appears primarily in criminal statutes, where possession of burglary tools is itself an offense if intent to commit burglary can be shown: He was charged with possession of burglary tools after police found a pry bar and screwdrivers in his backpack.
