Whether we are ice climbing, mountaineering, or doing a bit of mixed climbing, an ice tool is an essential piece of climbing safety gear. The Singing Rock Bandit Ice Tool is a quality ice climbing tool with a type 2 (t-rated) shaft and pick for maximum strength. This ice tool is available with either an adze or a hammer for our specific climbing needs, and the integrated Rhino and Boxer handguards help keep our hands in place no matter where we are holding the axe. The pick is made of durable chromoly steel, and the shaft, spike, and head are made from aluminum alloy for a durable and lightweight design.
