Re: Anchor types and General questions

Their are 2 issues at play on this Rocna short scope set re-set video.

1) Rocna has lower tip weight.

2) Rocna has a tip with the Chisel point UP, so it does not perform consistently on a short...

The image you posted is a Rocna Anchor, not a Mantus Anchor

Re: Anchor types and General questions

That Mantus 13 Lbs anchor would be a SWEET anchor for sure and its just a little more money than the Rocna copy.

Re: Anchor types and General questions

Good point.

I did not realize the Mantus 13 Lbs anchor was that cheap at $129.

It has a LIFETIME warranty.

Much better than the Real Rocna or the Rocna copy.

You would be much better off with one of these Rocna copies for $107 usd on eBay w/free shipping.

If you have to use a plow anchor (1950's...

Re: Anchor types and General questions

ClassicalBGP, maybe this anchor information will help you.

Any New Gen Shovel Anchor will be far better than any plow anchor

Re: Anchor types and General questions

Wow, Never have seen a Rocna copy yet. For that price, why not.
Interesting how they have a solid rollbar instead of tubing.

Re: Anchor types and General questions

Same goes for Delta plow anchors or any Plow anchor for that matter.

Tried to sell them on Craig's list and eBay...

Re: Mantus Anchors

Rocna then Manson (COPY)

Then Mantus Anchors a few years ago taking Rocna up to a new level.

Of all the anchors you like or called out, MANTUS would be the way to go and they have a LIFE TIME WARRANTY
