GRIVEL The North Machine Ice Vario+Shovel Ice Axe

With geometry borne from the Takoon, Matrix, and Quantum series of axes the Grivel North Machine has been designed to chomp up frozen & technical, north face alpine routes and cascades with ease. The shaft is “T” tested and is constructed from G Bone shape aluminium and boasts the Ice + blade which is also “T” tested and, unlike the Ice blade, comes in a hammer and adze option making these axes tools excellent for high grade mountaineering, alpinism and Scottish gullies and ice. The North Machine is compatible with the Ice blade (specifically designed for cascades) and the slightly thicker Mix blade which is ideal for scottish mixed climbing and dry tooling. Specifications: - Shaft Resistance: 400kg, T rated - Material: Chromoly Steel - Blade: Changeable + Reverse Positive - Weight: 480g
