Free Your Bindings! Our mission is simple: to provide top-quality tools and products for skiers who want to get the most out of their ski and binding quiver. The business began in 2007 when Jon wanted a new pair of skis but didn't want to pay for another pair of bindings. He wondered: shouldn't skis use the same simple threaded inserts that snowboards have used for years? He conceived, designed and tested the threaded insert based on extensive discussions on an internet ski forum and trial runs on the mountain.
 

Here at Black Diamond it's all about climbing and skiing. We share the same experiences that you do on rock, ice and snow and these experiences push us to make the best gear possible for our worldwide family of climbers and skiers. What began with a backyard anvil and a hammer has grown into a global company with offices on three continents that's not just for rock climbers, but one that stands for the spirit of the sports we live, their values and goals, past, present and future. Since 1957, our innovative gear designs have set the standards in numerous areas. This is partly the result of dedication, desire and diligence on the part of an incredible team of people. It's also the result of each of us being climbers and skiers ourselves. We're a company of users, it's who we are. We're the greatest dreamers about what could be, and the harshest of critics about what exists and because of this the creation of Black Diamond is a process which will never end.

We all know what it's like to prepare skis and snowboards with a nice sharp scraper edge and we know what it's like when the edge goes dull. Generally, you look for another scraper and find the one with the sharpest edge. Eventually, you will have to re-sharpen your scrapers using a conventional file, bolted to your bench or held in your hand... and that's a pain, but the pain can go away with the...Ski Scraper Sharpener from Mantac!
