Fruit Boots
Fruit Boots...nothing fruity about them but the name! Not sure that the purse would be best option...unless, perhaps, it is a leather purse. I have a buddy that stores all of his sharp stuff in a cordura saddlebag, which seems to work well. If you need something bigger, SECO (www.surveying.com) makes several cordura bags for construction workers that may work. I am sure someone will be smart enough to turn this last comment into something more than it was intended to be... |

Any more ideas? 1 out of 4 isn't too bad. I might just sew something up to put on them. These mothers are sharp |

I carry mine on the compression straps on the side of my pack. Pointy side out obviously. It works just fine for me, no fancy crap, just strap em to the outside like regular crampons, there just bulkier. |

In a basket? |

use a piece of dense styrofoam pad on the points, then shove in a canvas tote bag. Wrap it up in your luggage then. |

ethafoam or mincell foam lasts and does not brake or split like rigid/dense/hard foams |
