A lightweight hybrid ice ax for both standard and more technical alpine use.

The Salewa Alpine-Tec Hammer is a lightweight hybrid ice ax for both standard and more technical alpine use on steeper terrain. For this reason, it is ideal for snowy ridges or steep slopes.

It is slightly more curved and shorter than the Alpine-X straight-handled ice ax and features a sharp, aggressive 3mm blade and a minimalist handle that adjusts without tools. Thanks to its ergonomic head, it is especially comfortable to carry in your hand, when used as support on ascents and descents.

Its steel blade is strong and aggressive, providing improved penetration on steep ridges or over ice. Additionally, it has a sharp, replaceable carbide tip on the bottom of the handle for better contact when traveling on hard snow or ice.

This version has a hammer in the shape of nuts.
