I just took advantage of a rainy Saturday to install a HammerHeel in place of the original heel-lift/climbing bail on my Rainey HammerHeads.
It's a clever piece of engineering that uses the bale as a spring that overloads one way to hold itself up, the other way to hold itself down. There is room for a gloved finger under the bail in the down position so it can be picked up easily and it tilts forward in the up position so it won't go down accidentally. Quite an improvement over the original which need a pry bar to get it up, a hammer to make it stay up and pliers to get it back down.
The "new kids" at Twenty Two Designs that are handling Hammerheads now (with continuing consulting support from Rainey) did a quick job of filling my order and it looks like the postage and handling charge really was just the cost of postage plus a few cents for a padded envelope.
Nice experience overall.
