I don't know about that, I think there is no way I would buy those tools if I couldn't replace the pick. At certain point they are a throw away tool, seems sort of wasteful.
Everything else seem really cool.
for all that I use my Pulsars now I could throw them away. i think that'sa the idea here. by the time you wear the pick out there will be a new super cooler tool with a velcro shaft to match your velcro gloves and with a biomorphic design that flicks itself at the ice like a striking cobra so you don't get so pumped with stupid arm whaling away at dinner plates
