The Grivel munro is an excellent (albeit basic) walking axe. It comes with a basic leash which can be easily removed if (like me) you find using a leash is a pain with a walking axe, where you are constantly changing the axe into the uphill hand. The axe has a hole in the head of the axe which is just big enough for some karabiners, there is also a decent sized adze which is useful for digging where needed. At 480g (60cm version), it is lightweight, and not too much of a burden to carry. One issue I would point out with this axe is the lack of a rubberised grip. This can mean that if swinging the axe with gloves that lack decent grip, you risk slinging the axe out of your hand, to solve this I just used a tennis racket grip tape round the shaft of the axe, seems to have been fine so far!

Overall; good axe, lightweight, ideal for winter mountain days, just make sure you wear grippy gloves, or put your own grip on!
