Description
The Akila is the first B/Type 1 ice tool to achieve such high level of technicality in the ultralight category. The shape of its chromoly steel ergonomic head is studied for optimal anchoring regardless of the surface. Its adze provides a wide enough pick to quickly clear snow to place your ice screw. The Akila is quite short (49cm), ultralight (330g) and compact to be easily stored inside a backpack.
It is the ideal tool for climbers/skiers who want to climb faster and lighter with a very technical and robust ice tool.
Make your ice tool unique with personalized engraving. By default, we engrave the ice tool on the back edge, just below the head, for a discreet, elegant finish.

On est sur un excellent piolet. Poids très correct, taille idéale pour de la polyvalence entre l’alpinisme et le ski de rando.
Cependant il y a un défaut qui me dérange pas mal: il s’agit de l’attache pour le maintien de la main.
En effet cette attache ce bouge uniquement en desserrant une vis. Contrairement à d’autres piolets concurrents où ils possède un clip pour desserrer et resserrer et permettre de la positionner ou l’on souhaite.
Sur celui ci, système très peu pratique pour le changement de position de la poignée à moins d’avoir une clé sur soi.
En revanche le reste est très satisfaisant.
Je le conseille
Any chance of a 54cm? For those of us long of leg.
light and tecnical , very good item
If you never had this axe in your hands it’s impossible to figure out how light and well designed it is. I have bought that for ski alpinism but I’m sure that it will perform even on mixed routes
Perfect product
Ok
It's served me well so far, very lightweight and strong! Just wish it came with an allen key to tighten the hand rest ;)
Really appreciate this tool! I can't wait to try them on mixte terrain! 🔥
i climbed the super couloir with only one axe and it was this one, highly recommend ! it's like a samurai sword but better, can also cut butter with it ! plus the red colour is really amazing it matches my outfit !!
but for realzzz it's light, sharp and reliable ! I recommend !
Perfekt
Ancora non testata sul campo ma ad occhio si sente robusta, nessun accoppiamento che balla, in un peso esiguo.
Plus: arriva con le protezioni per paletta, becca e puntale comprese. Al momento soddisfatto.
Hello, the Akila ice axes (Adze and Hammer) are excellent, in my opinion as a Mechanical Engineer and Alpinist, I think you have achieved a superior product than the direct competition from Petzl (gully), congratulations! Perhaps, for my taste, the "pommel" piece seems a little rough.
Thanks

Blue Ice die Besondere Marke in Europa , von Könnern für Könner , die Details überzeugen . Daumen hoch volle Punktzahl . Andy Alpinist !
Excellent par la légèreté et la maniabilité.
Piolet super maniable et léger, parfait pour le ski-alpi et la pente raide.
guter eispickel der auch als leichter anker eingesetzt werden kann
On n'hésite plus à le prendre pour les sorties en ski un peu délicates. La panne est de bonne qualité.
Pour de l'alpi, glacée vive, je préfère plus robuste/lourd et efficace mais chacun fait comme il veut.
The Akila is my favourite allround and every day guiding ice axe.
Très efficace malgré leur légerté.
La bonne longueur.
Plus d'hésitation à le mettre sur le sac, et même en prendre un deuxième en cas de doute.
Da avere sempre nello zaino per una Guida, leggera, agile, funzionale, ben sagomata, da provare sul tecnico.
