Petzl charlet cosmi'tec ice axe

The subtle curve in the upper third of the COSMI'TEC's shaft and the reverse curve pick increase performance for both classic glacier travel and steeper technical alpine routes. This curved shaft provides clearance for positive placements over lumps and bulges and also distance between your fingers and snow. Pick is tapered and toothed for good penetration and security in hard snow and ice; spike is laser cut into sharp "stepped" points for both traction and clearance while swinging the axe. On the approach, the broad adze is comfortable in the hand and when needed is also an efficient step cutting and chopping tool. Delivered anywhere in the U.S.
