I agree that the Piranha is a very nice, heavy-duty, well-made and versatile grapple. Here is my new 66 incher:firewoodman said:flint, My Piranha is used 99% as a forestry tool. I have loaded thousands of logs one at a time on the trailers and firewood processor. Absolutely simple to tilt it down to vertical position and pinch a log in the end of the tines to pick it up and place it anywhere you want with total control. The top and bottom tines bypass each other so nothing is slipping past unless it is very short. We have used it to hold up entire trees and cut them off the ground, just gotta cut on both ends to keep some balance. I have used it for rocks from small to very large, and even to load junk iron and cars. A very versatile attachment, don't really matter what brand you get. It just seems this style is more usefull every day than other designs. Good luck, Keith
Only thing to warn you about is that it is shipped freight on a pallet with its hydraulic hoses & couplings attached and exposed to damage. Both of my hoses arrived deeply cut, possibly by metal strapping used at some point, and they would not replace them or even acknowledge my email. I would special request that they take off the hoses and couplings and ship them in a separate sealed box. Not a lot of money to replace the hoses... just a disappointment and an unnecessary pain in the behind for an otherwise nicely made piece of equipment.
