IronMind Thick Handles


I like all unique items, especially when they come from premium brands like IronMind.  These 2.5" knurled dumbbell handles certainly fit the bill.  They take 1" plates.

I cannot use them for USAWA lifts, I don't have many standard plates, but I am still interested.

Zstan on the grip board originally listed them for $150 in November 2024 along with several other items.  The price has since dropped to $125 (12/2/2024), $115 (12/11/2024) and $110 (2/11/2024).

While the price is certainly fair, it is expensive for something I don't need.  I think I would be a buyer at $100 including shipping.

UPDATE 4/3/2025 - After patiently waiting, the price did drop to $100.  I messaged the seller and secured purchase.  I am not quite sure what I am going to do with these, but seeing as they are no longer being produced and IronMind's build quality, I am glad I purchased.

These arrived well packaged.  Aside from some surface rust, these things look great.  The "interchangeable handles" are welded on.  They have a good feel.  Not sure how much use they will get.  One little hiccup is that not all of my standard plates fit on the handles.
