A few of us here recently bought their Bull Dogs and Venoms due to a thread just like this ! Thanks for pointing it out.
It's a good company to order through, very helpful there if you have any questions.

...They are a pretty good company. I also picked up a set of tools during the tail end of winter so I haven't had a chance to try them out. But heck, for the price I might pick up a back up for my BD Raven.
...You can almost afford to lose one at that price!

Awesome thread! Thanks for the tip.
I already have a Raven Pro, but my girlfriend's taking advantage of this sale to purchase her first mountaineering axe. Chicks with Picks, man it sounds sexy! It will help her out for our trip to Nepal!
EDIT: By the way, I forgot to mention that they will ship to canada, however they can only process US credit cards. So as long as you can find a way to pay them if you don't have a US credit card, they'll ship to canada. I'm sending them a money order.

It is a bit early but it's never TOO early to think of lovely, lovely winter

As I heard someone say once:
"winter doesn't go away, it just gets farther away"
NEVER too early to talk about some ice.

Hi All,
I'm very dissapointed. I just received the ice axe and it looks awesome, the price was right. However, shipping made the deal a bit less sweet, although it was still a good purchase. I spoke to JT over there and he assured me there was no problem in declaring the package as a "gift" (I confirmed this with him twice), otherwise I'd get creamed with duty fees. So, I got the ice axe and it wasn't declared as a gift. So now, a 22$ ice axe will probably end up costing me 70+$ (20$ shipping and ~30$ duty fees).
I'm emailing them to see if there's anything they can do...
