“I ordered the Farmer Carry Handles. PROS: The build quality is great and they have a nice knurling for grip. They also came with 2 pairs of spring clips which was an unexpected bonus! Shipping took about a week with their free shipping promotion. I also must say that I like these better than Rogue's handles. First, they are cheaper, second, they come with the collars & third, the knurling is much nicer. CONS: The only negative comment I have is that they did not supply me with a tracking number so I had no idea when or if the handles were shipped. I was worried at first but then they just showed up on my doorstep. Not the end of the world but when using a new company, I like to have all the info just in case. I would definitely order form Vulcan Strength again in the future.”

“Just got these yesterday and spent the evening having a blast with them. Fit and finish: Better than any pair of handles I've seen (rogue included, their handles went ratty really quick). Very thick and heavy duty powder coat, these suckers will last me a long time. Best Feature: REGULAR CLIPS! In a pinch you can use traditional spring clips and they'll hold on ok, but a pair of OSO's or Lock Jaw's and the plates are locked on solid. Least Favorite Feature: Knurling. It's above every bar I've used except for weightlifting bars (DHS, Werksan and Eleiko are the three I have experience with). On top of the heavy knurling there are two "spikes" that I have to figure out a way to knock down. I worked around them by making sure I used the bar in a specific hand, but I need to address it. I really wish it was more mild like an Ohio bar or Bomba. Summary: This is an awesome pair of handles that will survive anything you throw at them and would work great in an affiliate (take some sandpaper to that knurling though). No regrets about this purchase and will definitely get these again if I need another pair down the road.”

“I compared these handles to a lot of other manufacturers' handles before ordering them. The best feature is that they use normal Olympic size collars. This eliminates the need to buy pairs of axle collars to hold the weights on. This also saves a bunch of money! Rogue or OSO axle collars run about $40-50 per pair! The knurling is fairly aggressive, but it's useful for those workouts when your hands are covered in sweat. I've done multiple long (400m) farmer carries in the heat and humidity and I have not torn up my hands yet. The handles can also be used for some axle type workouts like deadlifts and OH lunges (just don't hit yourself in the face with the handle!).”

“The only negative is the knurling on the handles. I had to sand it down. It was a little aggressive.”
