Swings like a Nomic!

Pros
Affordable
Durable
Great pick
Cons
Handle can feel thin
Grip not adjustable
Not the lightest
Familiarity
I’ve used it a bunch

Picked these up as my first ice tools since they are a fraction of the cost of most others on the market. Their shape and bend make them swing just like Nomics. The handle can feel little on the thin side if you have a beefier hand, and the grip isn't adjustable to accommodate a larger hand/glove. Other than that, stellar tools for the price!

Want to love it, but...

Pros
Great sized gate, action, and basket.
Lightweight.
Cons
Does NOT fit Arcteryx harness well
Familiarity
I’ve used it a few of times

... but it doesn't fit the ice clipper slots on my Arcteryx harness well at all. Petzls fit much more snug and secure.
