CAMP USA Corsa Nanotech Ice Axe

Camp's Corsa Nanotech Ice Axe combines the ultra-low weight of an aluminum ice axe with the excellent hard-ice penetration of a steel axe. Sometimes an all-aluminum axe just isn't burly enough to get the job done. The 8.8-ounce Corsa Nanotech Ice Axe uses aluminum construction in the shaft and head but includes a light, strong Nanoflex steel pick and spike for better hard snow and ice penetration. Camp gives you an ultralight ice axe for spring mountaineering and technical ski tours that actually works when you need it to.

Bottom Line: Get the low weight of aluminum and the performance of steel with the Camp Corsa Nanotech Ice Axe.

Ichiro Iwata,"Backcountry.com uses UPS Worldwide Express or Worldwide Expedited for all shipping outside the United States."Backcountry says it is allowed to ship Camp products internationally. So you should be able to place your order and have the Camp ice axe dispatched (mailed) to you.Arigato gozaimasu, Sumo

Answer Ichiro Iwata's question >

Of course you want this axe

By: officeboy
March 28, 2008

So impressively light, I like the shaft bend too. Grippy paper down low, but doubtful you'd ever be swinging it from there. Bolted on steel points keep it more versatile; although this is not a real mountaineering tool, but perfect for what it's meant, a spring ski touring axe. I compared it to my 16 year old BD Mountaineering axe, and had to run and get my roomates to check out the unbelievable difference. Again, if your looking for a do it all mountain axe, get something else. For skiing and boot pack approaches in pre-cron spring mornings this is your guy.
