Would this Daisy Chain also make for a good ice axe leash? A standard mountaineering ice axe that is, not a technical ice tool.

No. It would be bulky and in the way, at least in my opinion. Just get some standard tubular webbing and tie something up. It will be a lot cheaper, and more efficient.In addition, the daisy's loops are far too small to fit your hand through for wrist loops. Given the cheaper price and designed functionality the Black Diamond Lockdown Leashes (http://www.backcountry.com/store/BLD1043/Black-Diamond-Lockdown-Leash.html) are a much better buy and are compatible with all ice axes.
