"I feel like a ninja now"
"I love BUDK whenever I need something the catalog comes and there it is, price is right and shipped and received in less than a week thanks guys and girls"
"It’s a little heavier than I expected, but that might be a good thing. It is like described. 👍"
"It has been assembled and will function as intended"
"It is very good, just something I bought and I use to climb my tree, very nice rope, should wear gloves when using, got many rope burns from it."
"I'm using this for pulling widow maker branches out of my mulberry trees that are old, and like others pulling leaves and branches from the flood tiles on my creeks.Might rappel a sink whole I've been eyeballing.Thanks Budk for another useful tool."
"Brought one with me overseas. Toss it and drag back to look for tripwires or pull stuff down. I do not suggest climbing with it though. Mine became useless after doing so, it bent really bad at the drilled pivot points on the flanges. Does not support 250lbs at all, but I imagine the rope holds much more. I'm trying to get a blacksmith to use stiffer iron/steel with same design to fix mine."
"I use it to clear out limbs and other objects out of the pond behind the house. Everything seems to drift my way, but this makes for easy clean up."
"I'm no ninja. I bought mine for tree work. It does a great job pulling branches when pruning trees and briars. Also good for securing a ladder from the ground."
"The solid steel portions of the hook are sturdy. The top nut was put on with an adhesive, like Locktite, which kept it in place very well. The hook cross member closest to the cap nut is threaded, which makes it far more stable. The other cross member floats free. The spring should be on the other side of the floating hook to push it up into the threaded hook, and the threaded hook should be thread-locked to the cap nut. When this is done, the hook can be collapsed and returned to service quickly. The way the picture shows it assembled on the box and the way it came leaves no reason for including the spring. By butting the cross member against the cap nut, the number of load-bearing threads are doubled. The rope included is fairly high quality, but I would upgrade to a more secure knot before risking suspending myself from it. The weight is very good for short-to-medium distance throws."
