I’m selling a pair of new Black Diamond Venom Ice Axes, neither of which has ever been used. One axe has an adze and the other has a hammer. Both are 50 cm length. They are being sold as a pair only. Price is $250 for both, free shipping.

Here’s what BD says about the axes…

The ultimate hybrid axe for technical couloirs and rugged alpine terrain, the Black Diamond Venom bridges the gap between classic piolet and technical ice tool. The curved upper shaft provides added clearance during technical ice and snow sections, while the traditional spike makes for smooth plunging on the uphill. The dual-density grip and included Lockdown Leash increase security when things get dicey.
• Climbs steep couloirs, plunges and self arrests
• Venom Hammer is equipped with a Tech Pick and the Venom Adze comes with the Classic Pick
• Comfortable, dual-density molded grip
• Lockdown Leash included
• CEN-B certified
