"Great for general mountaineering and will nail good technical stuff if you dont mind sore knuckles!" 10/10/12

Good for plunging, mixed with (T pick), and digging and hammering. Have climbed WI and Mixed with it but just need to watch the knuckles on it as it doesn't have a bad ass curve, still a great tool. Leash is only designed for climbing and not plunging...

"One BA Ice Axe!" 03/04/11

Great tool for vertical ice, they really bite/grip when needed. The leash is comfortable when your hands need that little break while hanging at 100 ft. The blade is set at a perfect angle. Used mine extensively in Canada this year. Wouldn't want any other axe!

"Excellent choice" 09/28/09

These tools are sturdy yet light and there's a very cool feel to the grip. I've used it for glacier crossing, in which case you really need to figure out a way to make the lash work for you. The blade has the perfect length to work accurately at different angles. It can easily take on ice/snow mixed routes.

"Great axe, light and very durable, but buy new leashes." 10/27/06

Great axes. etzl says they are used for Technical Alpinism but they work great on waterfall ice (WI grade). I believe that Petzl makes the best axes in the world, and i never leave home without mine. I usually do Alpine snow climbs and I could imagine a better tool. The picks come off easity when you need to sharpen them and the grip is nice. Only problem is the leash which is hard to adjust while your climbing.
