Ice Climbing

by ser, from DE, United States Written on November 23, 2021
Light and durable, love the bend in the handle for solid arresting and ergonomics. The pick isn't as sharp as I'd thought, and why doesn't this come with protectors. I only use it one time but so far so good, very light and sturdy. For my purpose, this will last me a lifetime.

General ice axe

by Slhclimbs, Verified Owner from TX, United States Written on April 23, 2020
The Summit Evo is a good general ice axe. However, I thought it was a little heavy. In addition, I didn't really like the textured spray on the handle. It seemed to me that it would wear off over time. In my opinion there are other ice axes out there at a better price point. Blue Ice offers a similar ice axe approximately 50g lighter, great swing, better textured grip design, $40 cheaper, and get this....you get a sliding pommel, pick and adze protector, and a spike protector GRATIS. Nobody offers that..but it makes perfect SENSE.
Pros:
  • beautiful design
Cons:
  • Weight
  • Price
  • Handle textured spray
Best Used for:
  • General mountaineering
Would recommend: Yes

Real nice axe

by skyisrain, Verified Owner from CA, United States Written on January 25, 2017
Bought this as an upgrade to my Glacier model for more technical winter backpacking routes. Very happy with the upgrade. Real nice handle design-worth the $$$
