Black Diamond Venom Hammer description A long snow route with a couple pitches of ice is the hardest type of climbing to select an appropriate tool. You can either have a good ice tool that sucks for self arrest or a standard ice axe that can barely climb a pitch of easy ice. Not anymore. The Black Diamond Venom is an ice axe that's designed self arrest and plunge into the snow easily but offer good ice performance. The interchangeable, classically curved pick is designed to provide solid placements while ice climbing and to self arrest securely. The Venom's slight bend at the top of the shaft increases vertical performance without sacrificing the ability to plant the shaft in the snow. A perfect alpine leash, the Lockdown, is included with this versatile axe. | Bottom Line: The Black Diamond Venom is truly the best of both worlds. |

GERALD GUERRA: 
Durable, lightweight, compact the hammer is nice!! Light enough for transport, but heavy enough to get leverage with. All in all a great tool. Bonus it is a great price compared to others similar tools!
Great second tool
fusionboy:
Nice lightweight hammer tool for alpine ice, steep snow, or any place you want a 2nd tool, but don't need to drag a heavier tool around. Nicely priced as well.
