RAGE (RRP: £185)

The ultimate tool for steep ice and mixed routes!

The Rage features an exceptionally ergonomic handle that enables accurate placements and effective penetration of rock and ice. The TPR material ensures good grip both on the top and bottom grips. 

The axe's handle can be adjusted by installing the included spacer to enable smaller hands to use it or when climbing without or with thin gloves.

• Aggressively curved shaft provides additional clearance, while the balanced construction ensures accurate placements and penetration on rock and ice
• Modular construction can be adapted to suit all uses and conditions
• Supplied with grip tape and allen key
• Ergonomically-shaped handle with finger hole for a secure grip when swinging
• Hardened steel waterfall pick for minimal shattering
• Accelerator that can be optionally mounted on the pick to increase impact force
• Matching pick for mixed climbing available as an optional extra
• Load-bearing spike (8 kN) made of steel with opening for attaching a carabiner
• 650g
