A long snow route with a couple pitches of ice is the hardest type of climbing for which to select an appropriate tool. It used to be that you could either have a good ice tool that sucks for self-arrest or a standard ice axe that can barely climb a pitch of easy ice. Not anymore. Black Diamond designed the Venom Ice Axe to self-arrest and plunge into the snow easily but still offer good ice performance.

  • Hybrid design bridges the gap between ice axes and ice tools
  • Ideal counterpart to your ice axe on a mountaineering trip
  • The interchangeable, classically curved pick is designed to provide solid placements while ice climbing as well as to self-arrest securely
  • The Venoms slight bend at the top of the shaft increases vertical performance without sacrificing the ability to plant the shaft in the snow
  • An ideal alpine leash, the Lockdown, is included with this versatile axe
  • Replaceable pick for a longer life
  • Bent upper shaft helps you clear bulges

Bottom Line: Truly the best of both worlds.
