Mez...I' m with you man...I use the grizzly' s also, and don' t have any problems with them. I like how big they are also. Maybe there are better out there, but for the way I use them (in the tree once a season) I can' t see spending double the $ per step.
If I had to screw them in and out every time I went(and in the dark) then yes, maybe I' d opt for the cranfords.
tnichols....where are you getting the Grizzly' s at $1.50 each? Thats a good price.
