Description

The Akila is the first B/Type 1 ice axe to achieve such high level of technicality in the ultralight category. The shape of its chromoly steel ergonomic head is studied for optimal anchoring regardless of the surface. Its adze provides a wide enough blade to quickly clear snow to place your ice screw. The Akila is quite short (49cm), ultralight (330g) and compact to be easily stored inside a backpack.

It is the ideal tool for climbers/skiers who want to climb faster and lighter with a very technical and robust ice axe.

Make your ice axe unique with personalized engraving. By default, we engrave the ice axe on the back edge, just below the head, for a discreet, elegant finish.

Pare ottima

Ancora non testata sul campo ma ad occhio si sente robusta, nessun accoppiamento che balla, in un peso esiguo.
Plus: arriva con le protezioni per paletta, becca e puntale comprese. Al momento soddisfatto.

Review Akila (Adze and Hammer)

Hello, the Akila ice axes (Adze and Hammer) are excellent, in my opinion as a Mechanical Engineer and Alpinist, I think you have achieved a superior product than the direct competition from Petzl (gully), congratulations! Perhaps, for my taste, the "pommel" piece seems a little rough.
Thanks
