Versatile ice axe for a wide range of use. Given its modular design, the ice axe can be adapted to a particular ascent. Especially suit-able for demanding technical mountaineering and ice climbing.. Bent shaft makes hooking in steep ice or rock easy while creating an optimum grip angle. . Hot forged head allows use of adze/hammer and choice of ice/dry pick. For demanding mixed climbing, the ice axe can be used without adze/hammer. . Head shape is designed so that it can be jammed into the cracks and to provide support for climb-ing in soft snow. The weight of the head is concentrated in the trajec-tory of the swing making penetra-tion into hard ice as easy as possible. Possible to connect a ca-rabiner to the head. . Ergonomically shaped handle is made of dual-density plastic for thermal insulation and safe grip. A carabiner or "Bungee" tether may be attached to the spike. . "Boxer" protects fingers against injury and getting drenched and enables leashless climbing. "Rhino" hook is designed for higher grip in demanding ice/ mixed climbing or, in contrast, in climbing snow slopes.
