Jared P Posted Tuesday at 01:40 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 01:40 AM Sharing in case anyone missed the announcement. Atomgripz from the UK is back in business, and has released a limited edition brass handled 6-band reaper with only a total of 50 grippers being made, and no more. Options for the spring are a natural carbon black spring (£199) or a polished spring (£229). These things look awesome. Available on www.atomgripz.com, or by talking to @lloyd80s, the founder of Atomgripz. Another unique custom piece is 'The Duke', a 25mm brass smooth handled gripper with a 62mm spread. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you guys guess it would be? My guess would be around 15lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I wasn't planning on sending it to @Cannon to get it officially rated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lloyd80s Posted Tuesday at 02:16 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:16 PM Just now, lloyd80s said: Maybe a full range, but not this year. Also, it would only be bands 1-5 as no more brass reapers will be made. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Douglas Carney Posted Tuesday at 02:21 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:21 PM 9 minutes ago, lloyd80s said: What's your guess Doug? My guess is the Atomgripz 24kt Gold Plated Mini Gripper will be comparable to the blue GHP Junior which Matt approximated as 20 RGC. But no heavier than that...just based on photos of the spring and spread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lloyd80s Posted Tuesday at 02:24 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:24 PM Must be more than 5lb, I think over 10lbs. I'm interested to know now! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deadgrip Posted Tuesday at 05:24 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 05:24 PM Getting reapers before they’re reaped! these are easily some of the coolest grippers out right now. Keep it up Lloyd! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lloyd80s Posted Wednesday at 06:14 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 06:14 PM I did a rating on the mini atom keychain today. I did this by holding one handle in a vice horizontally, then stacking weights on the end of the other handle until they touched. It won't be as accurate as true RGC, but I was surprised that I got to 21lbs before it closed. I'm proud of that little spring! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
