Key Features Explained
The upper pommel adjusts with a FlickLock, while the lower pommel collapses. The listing says the bottom FlickLock lets the lower pommel be stowed when planting the axe in snow. Confirm the intended pommel configuration for your use.
The grip and pommels have an over-molded soft-touch material. No objective grip or performance rating is provided.
What to Compare Before Buying
- Pick system: This tool uses I.C.E. system components. Check that any pick or head accessory you plan to use is specifically compatible with that system.
- Configuration: Confirm whether the standard pick and adze meet your needs. Other I.C.E. picks, weights and head accessories are described as compatible components, but are not listed as included.
- Weight and dimensions: The listed weight is 1.81 pounds. Confirm the tool’s actual dimensions if length or pack fit matters.
Compatibility, Size and Fit
The listing names I.C.E. system picks, including Alpine, Mixed, Ice and Dry picks, as compatible, and also mentions I.C.E. weights and head accessories. This does not establish compatibility with components outside that system. Check the exact component and tool model before combining parts.
What Is Included
The listed included components are one standard I.C.E. pick and one adze. Weights, other picks and additional head accessories are described as compatible, not included.
Before You Decide
Confirm model 5064240-001, the included standard pick and adze, and the I.C.E. compatibility of any additional components. For technical ice use, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for configuration and operation.
