Built using a chromoly steel shaft to be incredibly light and strong, the ice axe features a 3mm hot-forged ice pick that can tackle even challenging climbs. The side grooves allow for a stronger, more secure grip, and the large eye in the axe head means you can loop it onto a carabiner clip and keep it nearby.
