Detailed description

The Grivel Matrix Light Ice Tool's 18oz weight makes the cut as a ajust in casea second tool for mountaineering, and the hot-forged pick easily handles technical alpine pitches. A curved upper shaft gives this Grivel tool enough clearance to deal with ice bulges and mixed terrain without inhibiting its ability to plunge into hard snow on a summit ridge. The Matrix Light Ice Tool's X Monster head takes a serious beating without concern, and the micro hammer dishes out the beating when it's time to drive pickets for fixed ropes or crevasse rescue.

User Image

Does exactly what it says on the tin! Its a simple, lightweight alpine style axe. I struggled with it on very steep ice, found that a lot more effort was needed compared to a heavier tool. However coupled with triggers and spinner leashes this makes a great tool for easy mixed and moderate ice. I think if you want your gloves to last any amount of time the grip tape must be removed and a trigger attached.

Pros:
Light weight
Cheap
Comes with T pick
Simple

Cons:
Too light for hard ice
Not balanced (adze weighs more)
Small hammer
