kevino Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 i like how the first review says they're too heavy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Water Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 thanks for the link. anyone have any two cents on comparing the aztar to the grivel matrix light hammer? Looking for an alpine tool, not planning on any straight-up ice climbing with it. Thoughts? sage Dane? hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSky Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I'd be more apt to throw a horn on the Matrix Light and climb vertical ice, but since that's not your plan for them anyway...that is a tough price to beat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevino Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I liked the tools alot. I used them for pure WI and alpine routes and thought they were great. Very light and solid. Alpine leave as is, for WI I would but a pink rest like on the quarks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summitchaserCJB Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Just picked up the adze one last night. The hammer is sold out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Water Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I ordered the hammer yesterday--figured they'd sell fast. Also as a heads up, you can get 10% cashback if you shop for them through bing. Go to bing shopping then click the link to stores>EMS...setup a bing account. Its 'free' money as far as I'm concerned. I doltishly forgot to go through bing when ordering the hammer and when I tried to re-order it later that evening and cancel the first order, they were already sold out. Right now I've got $7.65 or something coming back from an ice screw I bought for a friend back in December. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frikadeller Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Hey Water, I have two hammers, if you get two adze ones, I would trade you one of my hammers for one of your adze. I bought mine off some guy on Craigslist, and they where both hammers, They are in good shape (Looks like they where used maybe once, and the picks have never been sharpened). I would trade you either one (which ever looks newer,etc.) if you liked. Lemme know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
