Rocna: ~$650 US. Delta SPade (the only other anchor worth considering): ~450. That is not a significant price difference. If the Rocna was better, I would give it definite consideration. However, I have never had my spade drag. I use all chain and have been through VERY strong storms. My daily scope is 5:1, typical night about 8:1. POssible storm or if I have the room, 10:1 or more.
I honestly do not think anyone would be unhappy with a spade. I have no experience with Rocna, but have heard good things. Ground tackle is one of your most important investments, don't skimp... but that does not mean the most expensive is the best.
