I hate to part with this but need some cash. This Chouinard hammer is in mint condition with the warning label intact.

$200 including shipping.

Thanks,

Jay

Not a bad price for a pristine alpine hammer. I'd be all over it if I did not already have one.

A picture of an alpine hammer in use in 1978. Shortly thereafter surging technological advances rendered them obsolete although some people continue to aquire them for unexplained reasons.

Yeah Tami....although, unfortunately, the ageing process makes collecting travel and adventures increasingly difficult. Acquiring collectibles continues unabated, until you too become a collectible.

I had one of those useless Chouinard Alpine Hammers that were laying around that nobody ever used.

They were good gardening tools for new routes.

$200 bucks for this st00pid hammer?

Wow, people are insane! .....where,

Only in America and industrialized countries where people eat nuts and bolts and not real food ......

I eat nuts Werner but after my colonoscopy I was told to give up bolts.

$200 for a ‘late model’? I wish I wasn’t both lazy and distrustful of eBay, I’d put my skinny pick Coonyard up for sale. It should bring $300 from some crankloon, righr?

Christ! I GAVE one of those for Roy the Boy or Bridwells fundraiser/auction. I have some old schit, not worth much to me, rather give it to someone who appreciates it than sell it to a "collector".
