Hi all,
Having a clear out of unused kit. All prices exclude P&P - postage will obviously vary by item. Will post out by 2nd Class recorded or free collection in Sheffield S8.
ICE SCREWS
All of the following are older versions of their respective models – see photo. Will post with a rubber or hard Grivel cap on each one.
1.
Grivel 360, 22 cm. Yellow handle. Excellent condition. £25. [Note: Curiously, Grivel describe this screw as 20cm but it is in fact 22cm across the whole length of the screw, ie. how other manufacturers and how Grivel themselves measure other screws.]
2.
BD Express, 19cm. Purple handle. Good condition, been sharpened a couple times but only lost 1mm in length. £20.
3.
2x Grivel Helix, 16cm. Black handle. Excellent condition. £20 each. [The Helix can be a little awkward to rack but places faster than any other screw I've used.]
4.
2x Grivel 360, 16cm. Black handle. One in excellent condition, the other has touched rock a couple times and could do with a sharpen but still in good condition. £20 each.
5.
2x Grivel 360, 12 cm. Red handle. Both well used and could do with a quick sharpen, but in good condition. £20 each. [I personally think the foldable handle is really useful on a stubby screw as you can get it into places where a larger hanger wouldn’t allow.]
BOOTS & SHOES
6.
Boreal Lynx, size 42 / 8. In pretty much as-new condition. Worn once outside for maybe two problems before realising I made a schoolboy error when buying online and had assumed that sizes would transfer ascross models…. Feels tight for an 8 to me, but a great technical-but-soft shoe. Check out Rob Greenwood’s review on here. £55.
7.
Scarpa Cumbre, size 43 / 9. Well used but okay condition - loads of life left in them. They look more weathered in the photo than they are in reality because I used to treat the leather parts with Nikwax which gives it a bit of faded appearance. £50.
8.
Scarpa Freney XT, size 42 / 8. These are pretty battered but fully functional and could suit someone on a budget looking to try out alpine climbing (or Scottish winter with some good socks!). Seams were seam-sealed years ago which has begun to peel off, and soles are pretty worn, but some life left in them. £15?
HARNESS + LEASHES + TRICAM
9.
DMM Renegade 2 harness. Size Medium. New, unused. £45.
10.
Blue Ice Boa Leashes. One red, one blue, as in pic. New, unused. £10.
11.
Camp Tricam, white / size 0.125. Carried on harness a fair few times but never placed (probably thankfully!) so in excellent condition. £8.
