If you’re looking for a general-purpose extractor for known, common archive formats, bsdtar is really nice these days; it’s libarchive-based and does way more than just tarballs (extracts zip, rar, and 7z as well as all the common compression formats on top of tar plus a bunch of others). Not really in the same class of tools as unblob, but handy to have around regardless.
