On 9feet, £75 each, got 5% voucher to use as well, any good? Got straight axe/hammer, might have some spare cash for bent at that price.

In reply to AndrewB:
Which model are they? I have Cassin Rainbows which are shite. They are 11 years old though. Having said which they were shite when I bought them.

In reply to Bob: The Mirage, but if they last 11 years they must have something going for them, whats the deal?, too light/heavy, not the right brand name?

In reply to AndrewB:
They have lasted 11 years because they are only used if the Quasars and Vertiges I use instead are somehow absent or I am climbing with 2 other people who need to borrow kit.
They are too light and badly balanced and the rubber handle grips are slippy and worn out.
I thought one axe was much the same as another till I tried the Charlet Mason Quasars. They are the dogs.

In reply to Bob: Thankyou Bob, I guessed the reason they lasted, was the reason you gave. So they're shite then.
