Anchar with its purported ergonomic handle these required extensive taping prior to use.

If you’re not happy with these, perhaps we could make a deal

But what is your asking price?

These are about €650 each and I’d be willing to trade if we made a reasonable deal.

These Anchar are not for sale they were a custom build fabricated specifically for me some years back I am upgrading the picks for the coming mixed season.

I see. So why buy the Grivels if you already use something better?

Better is a relative term I’m seeking something for waterfall ice and moderate mixed climbing also alpinism

I've got some x's for sale in the FS forum if you wanna try them out. 

Still got em for sale since this thread seems to devolving into a for sale forum .

Comparison of DMX with some other types left to right ASPEED GEN1, ASPEED L, DMX, and ANCHAR. It would appear the DMX has a more open, relaxed aperture to facilitate swinging and placing in ice as opposed to mere hooking.
