The Air Tech Evo hammer from Grivel is fast becoming a modern classic. Perfectly tailored for modern alpinism, it is also a highly versatile tool for all round mountaineering use.
Grivel Air Tech Evolution tools retain the proven, one piece, hot forged steel head of the original Air tech axe. The Hammer version has a replaceable hot forged steel hammer in place of the adze. As with the axe, it has an ergonomic, lightweight curved shaft. Combined with the Air Tech Evo Axe , these tools are highly versatile and are equalliy at home on big alpine grand courses, winter mountaineering in the Scottish highlands or gully climbing in the Lake District.
The angled shaft means plunging into snow slopes is more comfortable, it allows knuckle clearance on steeper snow and ice and fits better when stashing the axe between your back and rucksack.
Although this is not a fully fledged 'technical climbing tool', the Air Tech Evo hammer can be teamed up with the Air Tech Evo axe to make a pair of climbing tools for easier grade snow and ice routes.
The axe comes complete with a Grivel Leash, with an integrated rubber spike protector
