Important! So, now I’ve got a lot more documents that I want to scan, thanks to many of my improved technological procedures for doing so. But, what’s becoming evident is that the staple removal process is now one of the major bottlenecks. So, how to streamline this? Well, I’ve got to look for not just a regular staple remover, but a high-end staple remover. A gentle staple remover, a quality staple remover. Surely by the year 2018, there are better products on the market than the traditional staple removers. So, let’s get searching, then.

So there is a kind of “push” staple remover. This can be used for documents stapled together, but maybe it works best for removing staples from bulletin boards. I personally don’t prefer it to the claw-style staple remover. Not to say that I think the claw-style style staple remover is ideal either.

However, apparently there’s a variation of this design that has a unique, higher quality staple release design. But beware, reading the product reviews on this, apparently this is even worse than the push-style removers, which still aren’t as good as the claw-style removers.

A review from a secretary of a busy administrative office. Good staple removers are hard to come by. Some of the best staple removers are no longer on the market. Partially quoted:
As a side note: I do have an older Swingline staple remover which is a very high-quality product that I LOVE. No other staple remover on the market has been able to do as good a job of that one, and it’s not even magnetized. It’s a shame Swingline doesn’t still carry that product but w/a magnet.. Newer isn’t always better and I plan on letting Swingline know this directly.
Looks promising, but lots of reviews unfortunately say it doesn’t work well.

Now, this is it. Pretty close to the design that I want, and the mechanism isn’t too much different than my tried-and-true, gentle staple removal process.

So, the solution is obvious. I need a staple remover that is of a quite unconventional design. It might we wise to deisgn and simulate my own design as a buying guide for products on the market. The main problem in designing and using my own wholeheartedly is the need for metal parts. A plastic staple remover won’t last very long.
Wikipedia has some good videos on staple removal using the claw-style removers.

Again, I reiterate, because this is important! Also, it is worth noting that this is an area, lots of photos, 3D CAD designs, and how-to videos are paramount. I’ll have to assemble this information later, for the sake of excellent instructional materials for other people. For now, I’m just getting started, keeping track of notes for my own reckoning on the subject.
