Extraordinarily balanced, the Shuksan Ice Axe made by SMC is the perfect general mountaineering axe for long glacial and alpine excursions.
The Shuksan excells at self-arrest, self-belaying, chopping steps and use as an anchor.
The steel head and spike are attached with SMC's patented vibration-dampening connections to minimize bounce
The shaft is made from extruded aircraft quality aluminum that is powder-coated and oven baked for exceptional durability and smooth penetration into hard snow.
Unquestionably a lifetime partner, alpinists treasure this axe while rental departments across the country testify to its unsurpassed combination of function and durability
