Less seen and the ones I have are in the standard plate project collection. Who knows what kind of life it lived before we met. Who knows how many owners these guys had.

I've got a set of 45s and some smaller plates of these second hand. Compared to other brands ive bought new, the grip on these feels amazing. The smaller 5+10 pounders are also thinner than most of their counterparts.

I have at least a couple sets of these but they are pretty worn out from spending too many Louisiana summers outdoors (covered area).

Been using these for 12-15 years anytime I'm hitting 315+ on exercises in rack, block pulls, or supersetting exercises needing three+ sets of 45s in the rack area. No chipping or damage noted.

Bought this model several years ago to weigh smaller tires, and it ended up being the gym scale from there out. It has been reliable but it's downside is 400 pound limit.

This is one of my original pieces that has been around for 20 years. For someone who moves every few years, the best aspect of this one is the ease of taking the weight horns off. The bad: this type of tree's bar holder being super shallow makes it unsafe for a full length bar when the Velcro wears out or if someone forgets to use the Velcro.

Have loads of these up to 150 pounders. While many of the pairs are not currently in the best of condition, they were likely stored and used outdoors in the weather for years. Could not pass up the second hand deal on three heavy duty racks with most of the sets of these.

Definitely a useful addition to be able to use the yoke as a rack.
