5.0 out of 5 stars. Awesome Technical Ice AxeVerified Buyer Reviewed by Javier from Mexico on Sunday, June 4, 2017This is one of the best technical ice axes I have ever tried, it has a perfect balance for the swing at the ice. I recomendaciones it for technical mountaineering and some moderate ice/mixed climbing. Totally recommended if you want to evolve from classic to technical mountaineering and the price is amazing.

4.0 out of 5 stars. Good ToolVerified Buyer Reviewed by Anonymous from Canada on Friday, March 17, 2017A quality tool. The only thing it lacks is a trigger rest and a little tape on the shaft. Both can be purchased separately.

5.0 out of 5 stars. Versatile Ice ToolReviewed by Anonymous from Portland, OR on Sunday, February 19, 2017These tools are great. I recently used them climbing in Ouray Ice Park for 3 days. They are aggressive enough for technical ice and also great for steeper AIII+ mountaineering routes. The curve isn't super aggressive like some mixed tools, but the tools reached over bulges just fine. They are very similar in nature to the Petzl Quarks which I have used as well. These are a tad heavier in the head, which I like. The extra weight really gets you a good stick. These are about half the price of the Quarks. Score. I'm tempted to get a second pair for my girlfriend.
