Petzl Aztar - Axe or Hammer

A good all round axe for classic alpinism and icefall climbing. An excellent choice for winter climbing in the Scottish highlands.

• Placement efficiency:
  • thin pick, forged specifically for hard ice,
  • steep angled first tooth for thin ice and small edges.
• Better placements and hooking due to a curved top shaft.
• Thin handle ensures an excellent grip with elastomer for insulation.
• Good penetration of the shaft for hard snow: straight bottom shaft (walking axe, dead man).
• Fixed head allowing for a lighter tool.
• Equipped with FREELOCK leash, which is tightened and loosened with a simple rotation of the wrist.
• Sizes: Axe & Hammer - 50cm Equiped with the BLUEICE pick (type B).
• Interchangeable pick.
• Shaft type T
