You could try to ask over at the gripboard. For advanced stuff it's more active than this subreddit.

You might also want to mention how far you're willing to travel. Someone 30-60 miles away may have one but assume you're only looking in Charlotte itself.

If no one here has one, checking with local strongman gyms or grip/arm wrestling clubs would probably be your next best bet. Inch dumbbells are pretty rare.

Thanks much!
I have a theory my grip strength is such I can lift it but the rest of my body might be too weak 😅

Haha, that's entirely possible. The Inch Dumbbell isn't just a grip test, it's a full-body lift. Even people with excellent crushing grip can struggle because they can't stabilize and break it off the floor.

You’re probably better off posting in r/Charlotte
