Grivel
|
The ice screw with the welded eye is unmarked so I have yet to figure out who created it. Shown in the 1964 Fisher and Sons catalog is a photo of the ice screw shown unwelded as being manufactured by Grivel. I was able to find a ice screw which exactly matches the photo in the Fisher and Sons catalog. When I received the ice screw I notice it is marked Simond. Now the mystery continues.... is the catalog incorrect? Did Simond create ice screws for Grivel? Is the unmarked welded ice screw actually a Grivel?

Sometime between 2009 and 2014, the colored plastic handle went from cone shape, to more of a bulb shape with ridges, also a single rib was added to the tube of the ice screws near the top of the ice screws.
