Two 22cm Black Diamond Turbo Express ice screws for sale, current version in good condition. 

I just have slightly too many long screws for UK climbing. Message for more info or photos. 

Both for £72 including postage, or £38 for one. Collection in Oxford for less.

I might be having a moment here but are not the BD turbo and BD express 2 different screws rather than BD turbo express? Apologies if I'm wrong there. I have a friend after a couple of screws and want to clarify before I send him the link.

In reply to olddirtydoggy: They are Express. 

Turbo refers to the basic and longstanding Black Diamond screw design. The Express refers to the addition of the fold out handle, hence when Black Diamond launched the original model it was marketed and referred to as the "Turbo Express" as per https://www.ukclimbing.com/gear/snow+ice/protection/black_diamond_turbo_exp...

So that's always been what I've known them as, but Black Diamond these days seem to just refer to it as their Express screw.

Great stuff, it is what I thought it was then, an express. I'll send him the link, thanks for clarifying.
