The Blue Ice Blackbird Ice Axe is a classic straight-shaft mountaineering axe for glacier travel and traditional alpine routes. If you're buying your first axe, or want a dependable one that does the basics very well, this is the one we'd point you to.
A chromoly steel ergonomic head gives reliable anchoring in snow and ice, while the aluminium shaft keeps the weight to 330g in the 49cm length. The straight shaft is the traditional profile for a reason: it gives precise control on snow slopes, self-arrests efficiently and feels natural on the walk-in and up. The dual-textured grip stays secure in cold conditions. It comes in four lengths from 49cm to 67cm, so taller climbers and those who like a longer walking axe are covered.
