Tammy,
Do you folks ever have special deals, say on returns, of "xtreme duty" 60" cant hooks? I'd use such for bucking big rounds and rolling them off trails.
'Bout time to pension off my waaay-heavy wooden-handled peavey. Ultimate quarter-staff.
No rush.

sometimes we get a scratch and dent tool or a tool that has a blemish and can't be sold to a dealer. When we have them FF members and walk-ins are welcome to them for a discount.
Most people don't need an Xtreme duty tool, our standard series is very rugged.
We make them for veneer buyers, utility companies and the Amish who have no other way to move big logs that the rest of us would go get a piece of equipment to move.
If you really want one I can keep my eyes open for one. We don't make very many so we get scratch and dents of these very seldom. You could try Bailey's they carry them and sometimes discount them. They are also a sponsor.

Just thought I'd ask. I'll just order one normally.
Seems strange to ship from to CT to CA, then to ship from there back to CT. Unless you drop-ship. Do tools come with frequent-flyer miles?
Yes, I do get into it rolling some big rounds free. Still cleaning up after Sandy.
We drop ship a lot of things for Bailey's, so if the tool was going to CT and nothing else was shipping with it then it would be a drop ship.
I wish the tools came with Frequent Flyer miles and if you order the Gedore cant hook that Bailey's offers you could earn a lot. We make the tools for Gedore, they are a German Company. So the tool leaves CT to go to Germany then ships from Germany to Bailey's in CA then to the customer. Of course, you pay a huge premium for those flyer miles as the tool costs $399.
I think you'd have to hook a mule or a pickup to a regular one to tear it up.....
they are pretty tough.

Yea, but if I remember correctly, you have to hook a skidsteer to the mega-hook. ;D
Lest anybody be holding their breath waiting, I got a 4' std blue cant hook. Came from Baileys', took NINE days on the road- some sort of behavioral problem with UPS, it seems. Passive aggressive? Sure couldn't have been the two 10" loops of NK 3/8" LP chain weighing it down.
There's now a 52" wood-handled peavey available, if anyone's interested. It'll stand up if you stick the point in the (unfrozen) ground. Will deliver locally. Low mileage, $50 takes it away.
