DESCRIPTION

The Grivel Matrix Light Ice Tool's 18oz weight makes the cut as a ajust in casea second tool for mountaineering, and the hot-forged pick easily handles technical alpine pitches. A curved upper shaft gives this Grivel tool enough clearance to deal with ice bulges and mixed terrain without inhibiting its ability to plunge into hard snow on a summit ridge. The Matrix Light Ice Tool's X Monster head takes a serious beating without concern, and the micro hammer dishes out the beating when it's time to drive pickets for fixed ropes or crevasse rescue.
