I haven't worked as a chippy in a long time, but we used to place the claw of the bar on the shaft of the nail then give the rear of the bar a sharp tap with the claw hammer to drive the V of the claw into the nail, then use the leverage of the bar to remove the nail. It worked on probably 90% of nails, and is very quick compared to the "nail pullers".

If the nails have to come out , I heat them red hot with the oxy torch for a while , let that heat run down the nail and when its cooled a bit I have a go at pulling them out .
The same for rusted in screws actually.
I had a job a few years ago on a set of 1850s chairs that had corner blocks that had to come out . They had two 12 or 14 G screws holding each one in and they had rusted into place and were not moving . I welded up a tool that held the heat and transferred it through the head of the screw , a minute on each screw and they all came out . Heat is a great tool .

VEK Tools
I picked up a pair of the pincers (long handle) from VEK Tools ($59)They use them at the Recycling Timber yard. The long handle takes the pain out of pulling nails.

thinking totally outside the square and maybe not enough coffee but, everyone is commenting on breaking the contact by pulling them out, what if....just maybe giving them a good thump with nail punch and hammer to break the seal, then use pullers
