Description
Classic ice axe
The SUMMIT ice axe, designed for classic mountaineering, offers excellent value for money. The head and tip of the lightweight ice axe ensure good positioning and the curved shaft offers the necessary clearance for use on steep and icy terrain. It can be used as a walking stick axe, as a railing axe or as a traction axe on short, steep passages.
