They seem to be hard to find. I have been interested in purchasing one.
Used preferably, for I only intend to use it for a few trees that are hanging over my house.

You should buy one, totally worth $2500

Yes, and $2500 is a drop in the bucket compared to what it would cost a company to take these trees down

GRCS. Don't use mine every day but couldn't make it without it.

I started out on Klein spikes. Quite uncomfortable. Been on Bashlins with Super pads for 15 years. They're my favorite so far. I have a brand new pair or Geckos. Been on them 15 min. They hurt so bad I had to come down and swap back to my Bashlins. You get what you pay for with saddles. I'm in the market for a new one myself right now. I have a Couger that I recently Ligered. It's pretty good for now. Still have a few of the older Weavers. They're ok for a couple hours.

Ive got aluminium distel geckos, best spikes ive ever had and well worth the extra $$ to save your knees getting worn out so quick

If you want I have a weaver wide backed 4 D I'm looking to sell

How much are you asking?

I'm on the Klein offset gaffs ($200 even at a local construction safety warehouse), they grab great but try and twist on my leg on knobby areas. I bought a pair of neoprene ankle garters (used for holding your pant legs down in waders) from Academy and stretched them up around my upper calf and that seems to help with the twisting and discomfort.
