You're mistaken, she said "too big for her hands" so I assume she wasn't talking about you. No offense, it was just to easy... Minx, the Charlet Moser Quark, and the new BD viper should do the trick. Less technical, but light and powerful are the Axars. These are also very very good tools. I would not select a Trango, DMM, or Grivel tool. I love my Cobras, but they do have a wide shaft. OTher small shafted tools may include, Iain, Trask, and Necronomicon. Edited June 20, 2003 by michael_layton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

layton Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 Sorry Minx. Really, I apologize, but this thread is just to damn easy. (Like Trask's Mom, who BTW has the widest shaft of them all). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing though that she is one of your MILFs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fern Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 I like: Grivel Rambos, Quarks I am equivocal about: Axars, Prophets I don't like: Cobras, Rages. Simonds have been recommend by others as good girly tools ... but I have never tried them. Demoing is the way to go to choose a tool ...

Ursa_Eagle Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 yet another post from someone who didn't read the "any girls out there" comment... I've used the Trangos (Captain Hooks) on water ice in NY, and I really like them. I've done some mixed climbing on them, and they performed well. I've heard rumors about picks breaking, but we were only doing top-roping, so it didn't really concern us. I've also used some Simond Piranhas, and I found them to be light (which I liked). For what it's worth, I've used some Cobras and Quarks just tooling around at the bottom of a climb and the Cobras had the best swing I've felt. I didn't care for the Quarks too much. Unfortunately, this was all a few years ago, so I can't vouch for the size of the handles. I don't have small hands, but I was using huge mittens and didn't have any problem with the grips.
