I've toted this thing all over the Cascades. Much better than the 100 lb, circa 1930's axe I was using. It's a light weight and solid tool. The only self arrests I've done with it were for practice and it works well. Not much to it, it does what an ice axe is supposed to do. Not for ice climbing but a good mountaineering tool.
