Like The Sizes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice for a basic ice axe for everyday mountain use. I like they have a bit different sizing than others. That was the deciding factor. So I got it.

Perfect

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] very lightweight, pretty comfortable grip for my small hands. it feels extremely solid, and the leash (which you could remove without cutting) is a good touch. I'm glad I opted for this axe and not the cheapest out there. I am 6' and the 60cm was the right height for me on the steeps.

Very Nice Basic Axs

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this for a white mountains trip for self arrest. It’s exactly what you’d expect. Rugged and light and essentially the same as every other axe out there. Maybe a few grams heavier than the ones that are twice as much money.

Lightweight And Durable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Last week, I used it to climb the Nanhu Mountain in the snow season in Taiwan. It is super lightweight and sturdy, so I don't have to worry about safety when walking. The multifunctional lightweight aluminum alloy material and the great strap are suitable for snow-mountaineering entry-level people like me.

Super Lightweight, In All The Right Ways.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this ice axe. It's very lightweight, yet rated for use in anchor building. The axe seems well made and the notches on the lower shaft make for great handling. Overall, I'm very pleased with this ice axe.
