A lightweight ice axe for mountaineering.
The Spire Tech is a well designed and lightweight winter tool. The bent shaft and machined grips make it suitable for technical or sustained terrain when walking, mountaineering or ski touring. The refined design and rivetted construction result in a tough axe which will take a battering and yet weighs in at under 350g.
