Quick-Lock Kettlebell Handle

If you are considering purchasing kettlebells, give this a look. The handle is well-made, with a wide, comfortable handle you can grip easily with both hands. The top is rounded, and tapers into the loadable plates to avoid irritation of your arms with overhead lifting. Locks up securely, so you can swing away without fear of launching a plate or two at a loved one. Just make sure the locking pin is snug before you hoist it. This is the handle only, if you do not already own Ironmaster plates and a locking pin, you will need to purchase those also. Weight ranges from 22.5 lbs with the handle alone, to 57.5 lbs fully-loaded. Purchase an extended locking pin and you can load the handle to 80 lbs. If you are into kettlebell training, and need more than 2-3 different weights, this is a great choice. I tried the Powerblock and Stamina versions of adjustable kb's, and they just seemed more cumbersome and flimsy. After a month of regular use, I am still happy with the purchase.

I bought one of these about six months ago and have used it extensively along with my Ironmaster dumbbells. My only issue is that I didn't buy two of them. I will be fixing that soon. I also have the add-on weight kit for the dumbbells, so I have used this handle with no weights, with the short, standard pin, and the long pin. This item can't go below 22.5 lbs since that's the weight of the handle itself, but I haven't had a need for that so far.

It's a big hunk of iron. I wanted a big hunk of iron. It's compatible with the Ironmaster dumbbell set I bought earlier, which is handy. I can alternate workout styles, and use the pin and plates from the dumbbells with the kettlebells. I also like that the handle is larger in circumference than most competing brands.

Does the job, feels great and designed well to not feel awkward (good ergonomics). Wish it was lighter (maybe 10 lb) so that my wife can use it too. Otherwise a good alternative for a space saver.

I ended up getting rid of this because it takes too long to swap out weights; I ended up giving away my IronMaster set. The picture of this makes it look much smaller, but it's as big and clunky as other models. I have the 40 lb KettleBlock by PowerBlock, and I didn't care for it first because of its size and cumbersome shape, but this IronMaster KB is just as bad. With the weights attached up to 40 lbs, it's just as big and bulky as the PowerBlock version, except that I can't easily swap between weights when working out. I often need to swap weights very quickly in my workouts, but this leaves much to be desired here. Also, because it starts at over 20 pounds, it's already too heavy for my wife. It certainly feels durable, and I liked that the plates can be used between the dumbbells and the kettlebell, but ultimately, the heavier starting weight, slow changing mechanism, and bulkiness make it a "no go" for me.

Great sturdy kettlebell to compliment the fantastic dumbbells. Very easy to interchange and utilize the existing dumbbell plates that allow 2.5 pound increment increases. Next up are the 120lb dumbbell add-on kit; love the Ironmasters!

Big fan. Heavy on its own. Pretty quick and easy to add weight. Bought on a whim and did some of the exercises. Didn't think it did much till I felt the soreness the next day. Its a solid piece of metal and will outlast me for sure. One of these kettles replaces all.

I've had this for 2 years now and still looks like it is new. This is the handle only which is 22.5 pounds. The grip with this one is way better than any other KB I've used. And I have to say that this one is more much better than the one from powerblock. In fact, the whole set (KB and dumbbells) is better than the ones from powerblock. You can add a lot of weight to it if you have the long screws they sell but honestly for the average joe this alone would do.
