Ice Rating (if applicable)

Ice Rating

Most ice accessories do not have a rating. This field is used for ice axe and ice tool accessories like picks, that have an ice rating.

B / Type 1: Basic

T / Type 2: Technical

Note: Even though it looks like the more aggressive picks are T and the flatter picks are B, this is not always the case. The ratings are based on flex, and not the shape.

Hook always gets bent

Pros
Really good quality wire.
Rubber cover well made and stays on nicely.
Trim design.
Flexibility is good when clipped to harness.
Cons
The hook seems to get bent out of shape / straight pretty easily and often.
Familiarity
I’ve used it a ton

Have had a few of these over the years. Wish the hook kept its shape better. Also wish they still were easy to find!
