Tool For Removing Those One Way Screws ?

[RJsfishin]

Friend swears there is a tool for removing those one way screws, asked me if I had one. I said, yeah, its called a drill, or a cutting wheel. He still says there is a special tool for it.
Using just a little bit of my common sense, tells me there ain't one,
And there can't be one.
What say you all ?

Unfortunately a one way screw is not a security screw. Security screws are designed to be removed.... One way screws are not.

They work pretty good. You need to apply a great deal of force to get them out. If the screw is corroded, the tool doesn't work that great. You will have to use other means to get them out. They use them a lot in school bathrooms.

Well, maybe I was wrong. Anyone know how they work?


On edit, after much research, I'll hold ground on this one.
The reviews on these wannabe removers, range from bad to terrible to none.
I would not consider it a special if it doesn't work.
My common sense still prevails.

According to Google, there is a tool to remove one way screws. Seems to be plenty listed on Amazon.com, too. I do not know from personal experience, though.
