The Grivel Quantum Race Ice Axe is the ultimate axe for ice competitors with an aerospace grade carbon composite shaft. 

New hot forged head in chromolly steel. Carbon Composite shaft: no compromise over quality. This is made possible by the type of reinforcement and the orientation of the fibers, as the light alloy matrix transfers the load to the external reinforcement in Carbon fiber. 

The shaft has multiple grips for traction, hand swap-overs, reverse traction, and lets the climber’s imagination run wild. Change your hand on the shaft and the point of the blade will not move.
Retail at $335.00 each.
I am selling them because I have extra large hands and the main grip is too tight for me. I put brand new pics on them and taped the shaft with insulated electrical tape for added traction. They are like new and are the best mixed tools I have ever used.
