Recently started mixing in sumo deadlifts and even with the slightly milder knurl on my bar compared to other cheese graters I started to get a build up of micro scratching on my knees. Would be worse for my shins if I did not wear over the calf socks.

Started looking for a sumo deadlift bar and found one at StrongArm Sports. Aggressive knurl on centre of the bar with the outer areas smooth. Can not really give a review as I tore my bicep (not while working out) 2 days before it arrived. Tried a few one arm pulls before putting it in the rack and worked as I had expected. Not sure if any other models available.
